This morning I organized my patterns and created a master list so that I won't buy duplicates. I didn't realize how many I actually have. There are 61 patterns for regular clothing (dresses, pants, tops...) and 55 costume patterns in my collection. Judging by the ones I own, I think Simplicity has the best costumes, McCalls the best casual dresses, Vogue the best fancy dresses, and Butterick the best 'historical' costumes. Now, that's just my opinion, and it's based off the things I like to sew. If you have different tastes, you might not agree with me.
Right now my patterns are in two flat-rate USPS boxes, but just barely. I need a better/bigger storage system. Maybe I can clean out the 'junk drawer' on my cabinet and use that. How do you keep your patterns organized?
