    Great idea. I have always just stapled a piece of fabric to an index card with the details of what I needed but the brag book would keep them from getting all bent up. Thanks for the tip.

    As you can see I have marked how much fabric I have already and in some cases have indicated the pattern I am going to use for that fabric(s).


    Thank you soooo much for sharing this clever idea. I always just took scraps with me and they would get separated from the list of how much fabric I had and needed and I'd come home without the most important fabric I needed, in my frustration. This will become my new best shopping tip! Thank you again. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

    You are super organized. Just the thought of all that work makes me need a nap!
