I have 7,175 cross stitch folders on my computer. I had them initially split up by subject matter.... scenes, flowers, animals etc. But I found this hard to manage so I made sub-folders as in the old DOS system you could only have so many folders on the root of a drive...... the subfolders work well. Under animals I have Cats which include wild cats, wolves, dogs, cartoon animals, horses, etc. Same with the flower directory, roses, lillies etc. Then I broke down and started by designer. The immediate want to start right away are copied into a directory that has a pound sign (#)at the beginning so it stays on top when sorting. I search my machine often and usually I find something either by designer, company or subject. Like Dimensions are in a dimensions folder ......... if I know it's by dimensions I only have to look in subject or under the name Dimensions. I do have a download directory that need cleaning out quite often so they are sorted into the proper directories on another drive. |
