I started a DJ class in 2009 & that is how they suggested to keep them. I completed 12 before being sidetracked. I am now ready to start again & was looking for a better way of keeping up with what I have done as far as storing.<br />Thanks for your help.Kats Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13238018651312316716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945458432201525948.post-66651613771193952212010-11-07T23:40:31.345-05:002010-11-07T23:40:31.345-05:00I decided a long time ago that it was more importa...I decided a long time ago that it was more important to maintain my colors and that meant I really could not find enough fabrics....sage green and lemon yellow are not easy to come by. Repeating fabrics in my DJ quilt meant tracking them. I have several methods, but yours is simpler and smarter. Just this week I started a new system. I have about 14 blocks to go but as I near the end, the chance of repeating a fabric too close-by increases exponentially....especially since I've increasingly used multiple fabrics on single blocks...which is not what I did at the beginning of this project. If I ever do another quilt that requires tracking the fabrics, I'm going to try your method.Minkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475472888411008059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945458432201525948.post-62903101631871592612009-08-07T11:22:25.212-04:002009-08-07T11:22:25.212-04:00Sounds like you are definitely in the organizing m...Sounds like you are definitely in the organizing mode! I use my computer to help me keep track of my blocks. Like you, I decide from block to block what fabrics to use. But, my computer is also in my sewing room. :)Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03695273565973900159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945458432201525948.post-23115873447953082772009-07-19T21:10:07.121-04:002009-07-19T21:10:07.121-04:00Isn't it fun to get a project organized?

But you gotta have some kind of plan for this one that's for sure.sewprimitive karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04125490235366694521noreply@blogger.com
