Maybe a helpful hint
Because I buy more than I should on line, and a lot of pieces from Facebook or what is called "All or Nones", thought I'd show you what I do when new fabric comes into my sewing room. Purchased several packages of small hang tags (strings attached) and packages of tiny safety pins to mark my fabric with. On the tag I write the yardage amount, price paid, where I purchased it from, and on the backside of the tag, the name of the pattern or manufacturer.
At times I do sell off fabric that is no longer desireable to me and this helps me out in not having to remeasure.
Probably a lot of pro's and con's with this system, but for me it works!
