And I love the way you think...I put bits of paper with ideas with some of my fabric...then look cross eyed at the notes trying to figure out what I was thinking...now I try to include a diagram on a full sheet of paper...I also have a note book but always misplace it...any ideas on how to keep better track of it?

I went to an estate sale a few years ago and bought a 4 yard piece of fabric, and remember thinking that this woman had a purpose for this fabric and nobody else knew. So that's why I keep the pattern along with the fabric. I have probably close to two dozen bags - either cut out and ready to go, or halfway done but had to stop (I hate those), or "gee, I want to make these, lets buy the fabric for it now".....but I know I'm preaching to the choir here! Happy organizing all!
