When I work on a design I like to start from scratch and take photographs. From these I make sketches and notes. Everything is kept in a plastic wallet or file.. From here I make a file selecting what I need and keeping it in working order compile a folder. Thread samples and stitch samples are added. Samples of smal areas of the finished design are worked. Sometimes I produce a Story Board.
