I've got one other suggestion to add to that...

Put the date you started the piece on the pricking as well, and when you finish 
the piece, add that date.  I save my prickings in a notebook, and this helps me 
remember when I made the piece and how long it took me.  I usually work on just 
one project at a time, and rarely have a second pattern going, unless I've gone 
to a workshop and am finishing something up.  So a record of the time I spent 
on a pattern is very helpful, when people ask me, "How long did it take you...?"
