I was browsing Instagram for uses of a pattern, and I ran across @elenarchivist because she used the same fabric as someone who made the pattern I was looking at (funny how these things work). She has a detailed post on how she uses Airtable on her blog, IntellectuallyArranged.com
Reminder, I did a detailed description of how I use it here.
She has a bunch more tables and they seem like really great additions.
Quote:
- People
- This tracks all the individuals that I have measurements for.
- Measurements
- This table contains the individual measurements I have for individuals. Each time I take new measurements I make a new record and link it to the person record it belongs with.
- Patterns
- I keep track of all my digital and paper patterns here.
- Pattern makers
- Where I track all of the pattern companies I either have patterns from or want to get patterns from.
- Makes
- Tracks everything I make and links to every table
- Fabric Stores
- Tracks where I can buy fabric, both physically and online.
- Fabric
- All of the fabric I’ve purchased
- Thread
- Tracks the thread I have (to prevent overbuying).
- Notions – Other
- Tracks all the notions that I have. This was prompted by buying a BUNCH of zippers for one outfit and not remembering what they were all for.
It's brilliant to add measurements here. I'm not sure why she does a new record for each time she does measurements unless she wants to go back and see what size something was made in? Or maybe track growth? I have measurements in Google Keep but it makes much more sense to put them together.
I'm thinking of adding 2 more besides measurements:
- shopping list
- notions
