If one prefers the paper and pencil route, a rolodex type system is handy. Cards can be updated and alphabetized easily.

yep, I would do spreadsheet. |
Admin has a system available for swaps. See his posts in this thread:http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-20154-1.htm
Does anyone use this? |
i have a small journal type note book which i keep all information for any swaps, block of the month's, people i send scraps to, challenges, contests, ect. i manage to keep it fairly organized, and have any addresses, or project details readily available all in one place. i also have a recipe card file box with cards in it to use for swaps and i keep addresses in it for any continuing activities.

So far I have been using a little notebook for quilting. 3x5 cards sound good.
|
I keep a spreadsheet for my personal mailing addresses.
Haven't been here long enough to get addresses from anyone, but I'd even use a column in my spreadsheet for notations.. the who's who so I wouldn't accidentally send one thing to someone else and vice versa. |
I have 3 x 5 index cards and file them by user name in alpha order and on the card, I write down
user name (from where) real name and address birthday comments: (like how long quilting, favorite colors etc.) and if I do a swap will have that information on it also has a calendar to put down when swaps are due, birthday list etc. (and can set up a reminder for yourself) also you could create a private yahoo group to store the information online with databases for swaps, address book and you can store your links there from surfing etc. I have one! for my eyes only (private) |
