Keeping It Together

The other day I went to Staples to pick up a new binder to use as my design book for my business. My old one was falling apart and it was embarrassing to show to my customers when they came by to drop off their quilts. 

It also was the same day of one of Deb Levy's CL video classes at MQR where she showed her own binder of CL instructions. I decieded right then that it would be a good idea for me to do the same with the info that was comming with my CL templates and info/ pics of things I saw & liked. So since I was already going to Staples I would pick up another binder for the CL stuff.
This is what I got.....

Pretty cool, huh? This is a 4" "Better Built" staples binder and it comes in alot of cool colors, black, white, orange, turquoise, & pink. I also got 20 dividers (to start) and quite a few page protecters too.

I plan on having a section for the CL basic info then for each template that I get as well. I also Plan on putting print outs of the visualizers/codes/pics of the designs I like in the sizes that I would use most often. This way when I am thinking what to do on a quilt I can just go to my CL binder and choose the designs and plan out the quilting before I even get to the machine. This will be an ongoing work in progress and most likely expand to more than one binder. But deffinately better than just letting all of those papers, instruction sheets just lay loose or getting lost.
