When I dyed some cheesecloth I was able to find the ones that I had bought and put them all together, in their own bin with other hand dyed fabrics (mine and dyed by other people).Andree G.

Seems like that works for me anyway! I always interpret other designs "my own" way, too.

Before I put them away I enter them in a spread sheet which gives me some basic info -- date started, what needs to be done next and where it is stored. Of course some stuff gets shoved into the bins without a note on the spreadsheet. But I have notes like in box 3 (yep, I've numbered them.) Or in bin 1. I think I have numbered all the various boxes/bins sequentially. Every couple of years I go through all the ufos. I've been able to move items out like the fabric and the pattern I had for a table runner that wasn't enough fabric for the pattern. It is an never ending process. And, I move things off the spread sheet when finished. Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04758275644964547751noreply@blogger.com
