I keep a small collection of complete magazines. If a magazine only has an article or pattern or two that I like, I cut it out & scan it. So much easier to find what I like when I have it as a digital copy than to sift through magazines. Most of the time now I find inspiration online through Pintrest or Instagram or Google images so I just try to put good enough descriptions on my digital files that I can find what I want by typing in a few search terms in File Explorer.
