-the month and year when the quilt was started and finished (sometimes that is a LONG time in between :D )
-the size of the quilt
-any other detail info I want to include

When I feel like I never accomplish anything it is fun to go back and see all the quilts (wall hangings, lap quilts, etc) that I have finished. Since I have given so many away as gifts they are not around to remind me of what I have done.

I hope that some day when I am dead and gone my grandchildren or great grandchildren may like reading about their old Grammy and what inspired her!

It is a great idea to document your work. Good luck with whatever method works best for you.
