Journalling your makes

I have a LOT of trouble keeping track of what patterns I want to make, and which fabrics I have in my stash to make them up with.  ​

I am in the habit of downloading all the free patterns I can find and storing them in a folder on my computer desk top, and my paper pattern storage  in the studio is pretty organised ( more on that another day ) but I have fabric hidden in every corner of the studio and house, and much of it bought with a specific pattern in mind.  The problem is, sometimes i forget the pattern between the buying and the opportunity to sew, and that's where this brilliant journal from Patterntrace comes in!

I have made a little vid so you can see the inside of it but I am absolutely certain that this is going to revolutionise my making habits and help me HUGELY with my upcoming 2020 project...

How do you organise your thoughts? Have you a tried and tested system for keeping track of all the ideas, and all the fabric?  I'd love to know!
