I have tried to quit buying magazines, as I have way too many patterns, ideas, etc. now. Plus with all the free patterns out there.......

Just a quick note...
Check your county library's website for magazines. Our county library has many (98) different digital subscriptions that are available to patrons. There is not expiration date or limit on them. The software that they send the magazines through is Zinio. There are sewing and quilting magazines available, along with lots of other ones too. Steve |
i'm moving and trying to get rid of stuff i don't use. so, before tossing the mags, i perused them while in a waiting situation. i found so many ideas, now i can't get rid of them :)

How easy is it to use the scanner on iPad? What does it cost?
|
I use the large index cards.
Title of mag at top. One line with date of mag and pg # short discription. |
I don't have an Ipad but friend does and I am sure she would love to use it. Does it come with Ipad or is it a program?

I've started only getting them digitally now days. The ones I have stacked up from years of saving them are slowly getting scanned and saved as a PDF file. I have a bunch that are scanned, and a fair amount to still use. My iPad has a scanning app that works fantastic, is quick and easy, and when it is done, sends it to my regular computer. I use to use a flat bed scanner. It worked ok, but was slower and required more work than the iPad app.
Good Luck, Steve |

I tear out what I like. I buy the see through notebook inserts, slip them in the plastic insert, and put them in large spiral ring notebooks. You could have a notebook for runners, one for quilts, wall hangings etc. I've found the large business notebooks at sales for 50 cents each.

I rip them out and put in plastic sleeves in binders for stars; rectangles; squares; triangles; scrap quilts. I put all instructions applicable in the sleeve. It took a little time because I use to just keep all the quilt magazines but that got kind of messy. I am happy with the new system but I am beginning to think I need to go through the binders and get rid of some stuff too :)
