    These suggestions are soooo good. I will probably try them out and see which works best. http://youtu.be/s1KUdqRu4vQ That is the quilt I'm trying to make. This will be the most complex block orientation I've ever done. And, I'm learning so much. Like how when sewing strip sets my 1/4" seams are just not as accurate as I thought they were! Lots of little things combined. So labeling was one thing I knew I could count on some help with. I think I'll go find my DH's permanent marker.

    If you have a camera or phone that takes pictures, snap a picture and it'll be there to look at later.

    I make my own out of scraps of fabric. Usually I cut a 3/4" square. Number them any way you want: 1,2,3... or 1A,1B,1C..... I make sure when I pin the number that it is in the correct upright position. I use a Sharpie permanent marker and give the ink some time to dry.
