"Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most" Have this little sign framed in my sewing room, used to be in my office.
68 and so can relate to all of you. Sewnoma, I do like the chalkboard sticker idea for machine. I like to note what size needle is in the machine and I change often so date is important too. They say the size is on the needle, but my eyes say "is not".

Love sticky notes - we often said as teachers we didn't know how we ever taught before them. Of course, many of today's present teachers have always had them! Anyway, I have found so many uses for them, especially with my quilting!
Love the brightly colored ones - really help me keep organized and love being able to put notes on my sewing machine.

I hardly ever forget the settings for the 1/4 seam.....since I took apart the entire baby quilt!!! The picture is a good idea. I will try that next time I need to remember "just where was that stitch anyway".

My brain is connected to my hand writing. Without writing things down I am dead in the water. I taught at a university and getting the concept of writing things down was hard for many of my students to accept. After missing deadlines because they forgot and not having any "do-overs" like they must have had in high school they began to see the merit of this method.

My machine always turned on with the needle all the way to the left. ?Makes no sense whatsoever? Thanks to a poster here I learned how to reset it so the needle is always in the center position when it turns on. I have a Brother but so far has worked on every machine that has programmable settings.

Ditto..I have Brother machines..I can choose a stitch and needle setting...and save it to memory. However, I the machine still turns on w/ left needle position, and I have to push the memory button to take me to the saved setting. If I could get the center position all the time, I'd be so happy. Don't know how I am missing that option?
