Re: Shape a Sleeve with this Easy Fold-Over Placket
@denise, I find lots of inspiration on the internet. I tried several methods and found Evernote seemed to be the best way of organizing the images and articles. You can use tags and notebooks within the app to categorize inspirations. It's free for the basic service which has been fine for me.

Delighted to find this article. Six months later, I am searching for apps for iPhone and iPad that work for sewing, needlework, and embellishment.
posted: 7:43 pm on November 12thGood news is that Judith Montano has several embellishment apps out with drawings and videos of stitches. There's a free download that gives you a feel for how the paid apps work.
Bad news is that the Fabric Stash and Pattern Pal apps can lose all your information if you have to replace your iPhone. (It's supposed to be restored from your computer but this does not always work, as I learned the hard way.)
So if you are storing any info on your iPad or iPhone, be sure there is a way to back it up somewhere other than your iTunes. Some products do this when you register them. The latest rev of Fabric Stash has this option but Pattern Pal does not yet.
Re: Fabric collage on linen
This is wonderful -- so inventive and fluid, all harmonious. Thanks for sharing it via Threads! I will have to look up that book.

Thanks so much for the background story on this charming commercial. We have had our second-generation Prius for five years. The commercial captures the childlike enthusiasm we still have for this car, and the hope it represents for creating a better future.
