Lisa Walz is a quilting friend from Highlands Ranch, Colorado. We’ve been going to the same quilt retreat for many years. At one of those retreats, she mentioned a unique way of documenting her quilts and I asked if she’d tell you about it. Here’s Lisa, in her own words.
Whenever I finish a quilt, I put the leftover binding into a shoebox in my closet. When I’m ready to bind a scrap quilt, I start by checking in the shoebox. Last weekend I wanted to bind my scrappy green and teal Patchwork Forest quilt, which I’ve named Can’t See the Forest for the Trees.

Maybe you’ve done the same. It was an exercise in frustration but I learned some things, and some of the most egregious mistakes won’t be evident to others.
