Today I search for Unread Topics it was this page from danmar
http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-38737-1.htm
And I like her way for unforgettable ideas I like to share it with all of us who think we won,t forget these moments or these details
{Yes! I take pictures of everything I make, and lots of them. When I get them developed, I put them in my Special picture albums that I keep in my sewing room. I always buy the type like in these pictures with the space between the pictures, so I can write about the pictures. I do lots of crafts (knit, crochet, plastic canvas, etc. etc.), and I started years ago to do this.
It is a good way to remember, years later, what you did, for who, how big, whatever. I also have a calendar to write on until I get my pictures developed, so I don't forget dates.
Plus when I save pictures, I name and date them. That way when I get the pictures, I can copy dates off the computer or calendar}.

sawsan, I also have what I call "My Quilt Journal". Its a school notebook, spiral bound. I put the date I started the quilt and the name of the quilt at the top. I write the name of the book the pattern came from or the author of the pattern. And throughout the piecing process I write information that would be helpful if I were to make the quilt again. Listing block size, the embroidery designs used, etc. I put the finished size of the quilt. And the name of the longarm quilter. At the bottom of the page I write in who the quilt went to. Wheather it was for a birth, birthday, granddaughter, niece, etc. I take a picture and print it out and staple it on the back. If I worked out the pattern on gragh paper I staple it on the back as well. sometimes I'll even stable a piece of the fabric on the back too.

Hi! I am glad you think my ideas are handy. I'm an organizational freak! Thanks for the PM too, letting me know about this post. I'm just happy that you liked my ideas and wanted to share them with others. Here is a picture to prove that I'm an organizational freak.
