I think we should do whatever it takes to make it fun and easier on us. If we work outside the home and do this in our spare time then I say there are no rules, we do any process that makes life easier and more enjoyable. Sometime I feel like just cutting and other times like just sitting at the machine sewing. You have to be very organized and label everything and put in baggies or whatever way you have of keeping every project together.

Sounds like a plan.
In my family, it wouldn't surprise anybody to get a partially completed project packaged up that way!
