Forgetful at times
#12
Welcome to the club. Sometimes I attach a note to my invoice so I'll know what
the fabric is for. That doesn't mean I won't change my mind afterwards.
The other day I was drooling over some fabric online which I discovered
I already have. Duh
Tartan, I like that...mentalpause. So true. LOL

No problem on my limited budget! Each project gets a drawer or storage bin. And each has a folder on my computer.
I buy the fabrics for each project. Left overs are used for a stash of 6" blocks (boy, do I love doing them!) for my Canadian cousin who just left after a visit with over 100 of them to make gift quilts for the needy.

If I buy fabric for a specific project I store it and the pattern in an acid free box - that way the fabric isn't used for a different project and I don't have to search for the pattern. Other fabric is ruler-folded and put in drawers to be used for whatever comes to mind.

I've bought the same fabric twice. I have 2 of several patterns. I haven't bought the same one 3 times. Yet.

I buy fabric if I like it. if I am going to make a quilt pattern I like I try to keep all the
fabric/ect together, but sometimes I get to get to looking in my stash and things get mixed
up and I cant remember what when with what. May a note book and pictures is a good idea.
