Ipod touch apps Want program to list patterns

If so, what app do you use? I'm looking at the reviews of spreadsheets and it seems no one likes them or they only allow 15 rows. I don't need many columns, just rows. ------ Marilyn January 2009 to January 2010 81 yards out and 71yards in January 2010 to the present 106.7 yards out and 146.5 yards in.

It has a lot of features which I haven't started to get into (like being able to link the fabric database to the project database). If you're looking for something simpler, I also like MyStuff. Dawn

Hmmmm...I may have to hijack one of my kid's. Tht would help with my duplicate pattern problem! So what's the verdict? ------ Brother ULT 2002D, Janome 6500P, Babylock Eclipse SX, Juki MO654DE, Janome Coverpro 1000CPX, Singer 15-91

I've got fields including pattern number, what box it's stored in, type (top, skirt, pants etc), a photo, a link to PR reviews if available, where purchased, when and cost, and notes (fabric suggestions, thoughts on alterations, etc). You can include any fields you like, do a search based on any criteria and sych it with Bento on the Mac (if you have one). I downloaded Bento specifically for my pattern stash, but I've been using it for lots of other stuff. I've started cataloging our books, I use it for renovation planning, as an address book and for recipes. ------ chris Melbourne

I don't know if that would work for you. Have you found an app? ------ Fictionfan
Mrs.Moos   Intermediate CA USA Member since 11/5/02 Posts: 2339	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 4/6/10 2:00 AM Well, after looking through my Kwik Sews and seeing duplicates, I have decided I am desperate for an Ipod touch and a pattern application! Anyone have any new info on this? Has Deepika been driven crazy with all the board drama that she has had no time to come up with something? I have to try and do something. I mean those $1.99 or 99 cent Joann's specials are one thing but when I get into the more expensive Kwik Sews etc, I need a safeguard to keep me from double buying! Anyone? BTW, I read the other day thatVerizon may have the Iphone by Christmas! YAY! ------ Brother ULT 2002D, Janome 6500P, Babylock Eclipse SX, Juki MO654DE, Janome Coverpro 1000CPX, Singer 15-91

So you can just snap a photo in the store and it adds it to your in-app stash. ------ www.fehrtrade.com
