After I use a pattern I stuff everything into a clear ziploc baggie with a scrap of the fabric that I used. Usually when I'm going through things, thinking about a new project, the combination of fabric scrap and pattern is enough to jog my memory.sallie oleta barbeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00184217699471081340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229023062005372735.post-87867810363831862472013-03-20T08:29:29.384-04:002013-03-20T08:29:29.384-04:00I don't keep fabric notes, but the only fabric...I don't keep fabric notes, but the only fabric I've made anything with is basic cotton so far.

I always do a lot, and I mean a lot, of tests with tension before sewing the whole thing. And it didn't even cross my mind to use a stapler to do so. Well, keep throwing more tips at us and I believe that we'll all have a more organized sewing room.

My main problem is that I like to work with scraps for quilts and small projects so I have about 10 gazillion different (and tiny) fabrics in my cupboard. Maybe a cute little stapler will provide me with just the right among of motivation to organize my bigger pieces of fabric!
