Memories are made of this...

From every item I ever made, or any fabric I ever had, I collected small pieces of fabric.
I then made other items like a patchwork cushion or a cute little patchwork dress for my 2 year old, a handbag, an apron and many other things.
Each time I look at these patchwork items they remind me of years gone by and projects I made but may have otherwise forgotten, because I had given them away as gifts.

Comments

I love the idea of the scrapbook. Thanks for the tip.

What I forgot to add was that I also kept fabric pieces and pasted them into a scrapbook with a date and description of what I made with that particular fabric and who I gave the finished project to. If I could I also added a photo but in this day and age I better start experimenting of how I can now store 'my memories' on the computer :)
