    I use the binders and page protectors too. Works great.

    Looks like we have a winner then.

    Binders with protector sheets it is.

    Figure I got to get out and get me some .

    Thanks for all you input!

    God, Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    The stash to make a quilt to help me cope,
    A quilt to give to comfort those I love in times of hurt, fear and uncertainty.
    And the courage to keep on sewing when life itself seems held together by a single thread of hope.

    Another thing you might do is have a master list in the front of your binder that has a list of quilts that you want to make and where they are in the binder.

    Right. First thing tomorrow I'm off to get myself a few binders. My folders are bulging and overflowing everywhere, why didn't I think of binders before especially as I already have plenty of polythene protectors! Thanks for posting Swedish Leo.

    And then, make something like this to cover your binder! So cute.

    I use binders and clear page protectors too. They also work well for holding templates made out of thin cardboard.

    I have one binder specifically for store-bought costume and clothing patterns also. The page protectors work well to put all the cut-out pieces back in one place so you don't lose them (because they NEVER get back in that paper envelope).

    This is what I do. Works the best for me. Otherwise I lose them.

    For my list of what I want to do, I just put it on a memo sheet on my kindle fire. Then I can change them around or delete them at will.

    I have the Evernote app on my computer, so if I see a pattern that I like online, I "clip" it using Evernote, and place it in my Quilting Ideas folder. The great thing is that Evernote syncs with my smartphone and my iPad, so if I'm at my LQS, I can easily access that folder on my phone--just in case I see some yardage that would be perfect for one of the saved patterns. I also have a paper journal that I use to make notes on the fabric I have in my stash, and what quilt I might use it for.
