Hmmm, I am sitting here thinking what swatches would be good for in a binder once the quilt is made? I can see cutting pieces for matching up or filing with a pattern to be made later and marking the fabrics you intend to use for it.
Reading also of the other reasons to note what fabrics one has, to keep a record of colors, yardage or fat qtrs etc. Not a bad idea. To be so organized!!
Oh, so many good ideas for organizing for upcoming projects!
All I have done is, take pictures of all the things I have made to date. Most of which I have given away. I enjoy having a picture diary of things made.
