Does anyone know of an app that will keep an inventory of everything that I have. Patterns, fabric, notions, equipment, interfacings, on going projects, books etc.
I have GOT to GET THIS UNDER CONTROL! DAGNABIT!
AND! It’s time for me to make a sewing tool apron and quit looking for “ I just had it! Now where did I put it” tools and time wasters

Hello Donna, I use Trello to organize my patterns and fabrics. It can be used to organize anything!! I cannot recommend it enough.
Thank you so much for that response! I'm going to check it out as well.
I downloaded Trello, but am not sure how to use it to inventory or maintain a list of my current patterns and fabrics. Have you used a specific template? Would you be willing to share a screenshot of your use? Thanks so much.
Going to look into this also!
Hello DonnasDream,
Thank you SO MUCH for asking this question. I never even thought of it. I am So right there with you. I have purchased duplicates of so many things b/c it's so out of control. I have resorted to typing everything in spreadsheets.

Hello MEscoe,
Thank you So Much for sharing. Will DEF be checking into that!
I need an apron too! I have multiple work stations but never seem to have what I need when I need it. Let me know if you find a good pattern because I can only seem to get kitchen apron patterns when googling.
Yeah even I am GOING to look into this !
Several years ago, I created a sewing apron for myself. Basically just cut a rectangle of fabric the size I wanted, then turned up the bottom edge (doubled) and separated it into pockets by stitching vertical rows. I stitched mine on a slight diagonal because it made getting my tools out easier.
