I know that I will never have enough time to complete them all, but keeping my projects organized helps me complete more of them.

As I come across fabric and patterns or designs, I put them all together in a project box and label it. When I have time, I complete a small step of the project, like cutting the pieces. Then I replace them in their project box until I find time to work on it again.

Using project boxes keeps projects together and makes it easy to do one on the run. This way I have a project ready to go when I need one in a hurry.

Great idea! I have been putting my projects in plastic shoeboxes if they're small enough. Because the boxes are translucent I can identify my projects easily. I usually wait until the boxes go on sale to pick up several.
