Note to Self
I am moving today and I tried packing with some old quilt magazines. BAD IDEA, as I was trying to tear pages off to wrap around glasses, etc. I kept getting distracted by the patterns and the packing took me at least twice as long and I had a stack of torn out sheets of future projects. I am hopeless. Good news is that the new sewing room is at least twice as large as the current sewing room!! Can hardly wait to get all this junk into the new place and get unpacked so I can go back to sewing. Back to work.

Here is a quick pic of the current sewing room. The space between the window and the wall is the same on the other side and I am standing in the door. Behind me is about another foot or two. And they call this a bedroom. Closet in this room is 4 feet wide maybe. Alot of my fabric is in tubs outside under tarps (I know but you do what you gotta do). New place has a medium size walk in closet and SO MUCH MORE space. Hurry hurry get this day over.

I keep all my magazines as my taste changes over time.
With file cards I go thru each mag and write which patterns I like and a short description the pg number etc.
This way I can scan the cards and find what Im interested in making.
When I run out of room to store them I don't know what I will do. For now they are in cardboard mag holders and on shelves.
Also if I don't like any patterns in a mag at least I can get rid of that mag.
