If I keep it that long, the end date ;) For awhile I was hanging on to the old (used) prickings - so what to do with these odd pieces, I stuck them in various pouches, folders and a lidded wooden box - have since decided, to reduce clutter, only to archive a few of them, such as if I still have the piece of lace that went with. > > > 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.
