The Design Loft: Bullet journal follow-up
http://designloft.blogspot.com/2015/02/bullet-journal-follow-up.html
February 03, 2015. I spend a little time at the beginning and end of each day to write and review my many tasks. I am using this journal to keep track of tasks for my two part-time jobs, my small business, and personal tasks. I imagine if one of my jobs became much more involved, I would add a separate journal.

April 16, 2015. Grading from body measurements pt. 2. This is part two of an ongoing discussion about N. A. Schofield's article Pattern Grading found in the Sizing in Clothing book. Part one is here.
