I just wish sometimes I could send them some design ideas that they could add to their catalog.<br />However I get my paper for drafting from the medical supply office. I use to store my patterns by putting them in plastic bags, but because I am a visual person and I want to see it right now, I found a different way to store my sheets. I use a paper roll that looks similar to a paper towel roll. I take a picture of the pattern from the book, glue to the outside of the roll. Now just place all cut pattern pieces together, roll then place inside of tube. Organize by pants, tops dresses, etc in containers standing up. It is all visual immediately.<br />BJ Clacknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204432097294908162.post-13594845199777234002011-12-11T23:47:39.300-08:002011-12-11T23:47:39.300-08:00Nice idea thanks for Sharing Laura..Nice idea thanks for Sharing Laura..Fonnell/Grammie/momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14428737043026677865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204432097294908162.post-30494897611866988402011-12-11T22:46:57.519-08:002011-12-11T22:46:57.519-08:00Any pattern I draft, whether it's my own or fr...Any pattern I draft, whether it's my own or from an altered commercial pattern, gets sized, dated and numbered if necessary. I then punch a hole at the top of the pattern piece, and slip the pieces on one of those small silver circle clips you can buy at a office supply store. A picture of the pattern - drawn or copied - is also hole-punched and hung at the front of the pieces for that pattern. If it's not obvious, I also put the number of pattern pieces on the picture. Then I loop several of these through a larger circle clip, and hang them from hooks or shelves, depending. <br /><br />Maybe this system would also work for others. :-)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15411190846345671551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204432097294908162.post-15300872158969222552011-06-22T21:26:02.063-07:002011-06-22T21:26:02.063-07:00Great to see so many patternmakers out there.

I thought you might like my system for storage as I have hundreds, nay thousands of patterns.<br />I use tissue wrap paper & join lengths as required with a glue stick. Generally one sheet of paper will make a bodice pattern & two for pants & full skirts. I always mark on each pattern piece the pattern number & book number it's from & I add the bust & hip size, as I make for different people. You can colour code your patterns by using different colour tissue. I then copy & print the pic on a sheet & store the entire pattern in a plastic pouch for a ring binder. I have many folders for skirts pants jackets etc I can find my patterns by quickly looking through my books, I use weights instead of pins which helps keep my patterns from wearing in the corners. Hope my system works for others too as you can store your patterns in your bookshelf & create a reference book that you can show others throughDressmaking Fairyhttp://www.bloodwoodfineartgallery.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204432097294908162.post-44378093833031968852010-11-23T19:06:35.942-08:002010-11-23T19:06:35.942-08:00Another organizational option is to use page prote...Another organizational option is to use page protectors and large 3 ring binders,label each binder for skirts, pants, blouses etc.<br />I find this easy for my own personal patterns.<br />I keep my customers patterns in 6 x 9 envelopes in a file cabinet and have no room for my own personal patternsbarngoddessnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204432097294908162.post-60752484361171732362009-11-29T18:35:09.829-08:002009-11-29T18:35:09.829-08:00I think Ann does what I do, I scan my photo and th...I think Ann does what I do, I scan my photo and then print and tape it on.Fonnell/Grammie/momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14428737043026677865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204432097294908162.post-90862074607232056012009-11-29T16:57:00.264-08:002009-11-29T16:57:00.264-08:00How are you getting those great pictures to put on...How are you getting those great pictures to put on your envelopes?Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07251147737253912516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9204432097294908162.post-2649333827909544202009-09-19T06:53:12.107-07:002009-09-19T06:53:12.107-07:00Well this was very helpful organizing info.
