Hi,
I am just wondering how others keep track of future projects they wish to make.
Often I make a mental note and forget them after finishing the current project I am working on. Any tips?

Hello Judi,
Currently, I do not have a lot of time for multiple projects. Maybe I will when my kids get older and I am not homeschooling three. My boys will be finished within the next two years, then I will just my daughter to finish schooling.
I decided to do a search on this topic and found this interesting Craft Tracker and decided to share. It states that it is free, so others may be interested in trying it out. If anyone does, will you let us know how you like it?
Craft Tracker from CraftFreely.com - Track Your Knitting and Crochet WIPs, Finished Projects and more
Here are some other helps I found:
Download Needlework Projects for HanDBase Freeware - Keep track of your needlework projects - both knitting and crochet
Keep TRACK of Your Knitting & Crochet w/an App for iPads! | Apps for iPads
Kathryn Ivy - Knitting Journal
Keep track of your knitting projects on your mobile with Android: free application | Knitwear Patterns
Thanks Barbi, I will check them out.
You have your hands full for sure with home schooling your kids. Thanks for all the help you give everyone here.

Hi Judi! I have a note book that I keep track of projects I want to make! Because I have a business, that list is extremely long! If I'm sure I will make the item, I download the pattern and file them in my pattern box! I would like to find an easier way to store patterns!
when I find a pattern I want to make..I download it & put them in plastic sleeves & store them in a notebook..
I make page holders from Large cereal boxes using contact paper to cover box. Cut like a magazine holder and they look good on shelf.
I have a craft folder on my computer ad I copy patterns into that folder. I also keep a document in there with a list of which pattern I want to make, who it will for and for what occasion so I won't miss any dates. The list part is something new I am trying since joining this group so I can keep track of all the fabulous patterns and ideas we share.
I am the worlds worst at jotting down notes to myself and not keeping them in a central place. I do need a special spot for my future project ideas. I do have a huge folder with patterns that I like in it. I guess I should start another with all my notes and patterns that I plan on making in it. I never claimed to be organized with them.....hah. Plus I know I'll probably never have enough time to do all I would like to do.
Thanks for the good ideas everyone.
