but it's a starting point. Let me know what you think. I have lots of ideas, but I'll prioritize them based off what people want.

A couple things I've thought
A couple things I've thought of on my first tool around:
- I'd like to be able to select more than one option for quilt type (patchwork, applique, scrap etc).
- Mostly, I'd really like in the long run to be able to browse other people's projects (similar to ravelry). It's so inspiring to see what other people are working on, and it's a big reason why I spend so much time on ravelry.
I'll swap it so you can add
I'll swap it so you can add multiple categories.
The ability to look through people's projects is there, once we get people to use it. We need to spread the word :)

More than anything, I want a place to catalog my projects (similar to Ravelry). Project name, pattern name, who it is for, size, date started and completed, how it is or will be quilted, notes. I don't know that I would enter the quantity and names of fabrics used, as most of my quilts have lots of fabrics and are sometimes made from scraps. However, other quilters might have a use for this.
Also, a "library" to list my books and patterns, and a "stash" to list the kits, BOMs, and fabrics I have stored away.

alright, you can add books to the site's library, and then flag them to add to yours. Right now, it's just setup to go off ISBNs and the info will populate if they're in Amazon.com's DB.
I also added tabs across your profile page to go to your library and your project pages.
Did you try adding an album?

That's the starting point equivelent of a rav project page. Adding a library shouldn't be too tough. I'll give it a go.
"Stash" does seem like it'd be a lot of work for a user to maintain.
