create yourself a blog so you can put what projects you are working on and also can post pictures of it

maybe do a work in progress of pictures and also take pictures of the finished quilts

Last week I sent out 6 Quilts for Kids quilts, 3 from their kits and 3 from my stash and I forgot to take pictures of them!
I gave a baby quilt to my therapist for his new baby and I forgot to take a picture.
I made a quilt for a friend that had a double mastectomy and I forgot to take a picture of the quilt!!!
Sometimes I can't believe myself!!!!!

As craftybear says take WIP shots. They are better than nothing. I forgot one small quilt I put under the Wishing Tree one Christmas. Have photos of most of my quilts but tend to forget other projects at times.

There are a couple of people who I have asked to do this for me and after months and months and several requests, I still don't have a picture!!!!!

I have been knowing to ask the recipient to take a picture of the completed gift when I forget. :|

Exactly!
The pictures of my cousin's quilt all have a pink hue. I now have a new camera!

When my husbands cousin got married in Franklin TN, we flew out for the wedding. Somehow my camera got turned to a blue setting and all the pictures were blue!!! I was pretty bummed!!!

I did that same thing last month. I made a table runner for a friend with machine quilting myself that actually looked good and I forgot to get pics.
