I have file folders on my laptop hard drive -- thety are categorized as Quilt patterns, Children & preemie quilts, Quilts of Valor, Small projects, Bags & wallets, Stitcheries, and Techniques. If I want to print a pattern out I copy it onto a thumb drive or email it to myself so that I can print it out on my printer downstairs. I have 2 binder notebooks and I put printouts into plastic sleeves and use the same categories as on my hard drive to file items in the notebooks.
