Gosh you are organized. I usually just focus on one project (for buying) and have little pieces in a plastic envelope and when I come back I empty it and put it in my fabic area to reuse over and over. I do like your idea a lot.

that is a neat idea, :)

Very good and useful and do-able tip!
Thanks. |
It's good too for when you are out and about shopping, put pieces in that you need a coordinate for, for when you make that "next" or "someday" project.

Might be interesting to see how long it took when you look in your book in years to come.
I added a tiny drawing of the block made; grandmother's fan on the bottom page and pinwheel on the top page. I also take photos of each quilt when finished and keep an album of all the quilts that I have made over the years. [ATTACH=CONFIG]122884[/ATTACH] |

But I REALLY like your idea Oma! for carrying scraps to fabric store!! Guess I will have to make me another! |
Great idea! If you wanted to go larger, you could try the pages used for baseball cards in a 3 ring binder.

I really like this idea. I am going to try this one. Thanks for sharing this great tip.

Super idea! I get to the quilt store and forget what I wanted. I then think well, I'll wait until I can get the pattern and type material I want. Ends up I get nothing. Thanks for the tip!

I second this absolutely! Thank you for sharing your great idea with us!
