Your projects deserve better than your notes app and a prayer.
And you deserve a system for your hobbies that give you more making time without wanting to pull your hair out.

You know that feeling when you sit down to work on something and you spend the first ten minutes just trying to remember where you left off?
Or you buy a pattern, forget you have it, and buy it again?
Or Christmas sneaks up on you and you realize you never actually started that handmade gift you were so excited about in July?
Yeah. That’s what this is for.
The Messy Maker Dashboard
A cozy Notion template that gives all your making one home — your works in progress, your pattern collection, your gift plans, your future project ideas, and the finished things you actually want to remember and celebrate. All in one place, actually pretty to look at, and built for the crafter who wants a system without feeling like they're doing homework.

Organized enough to actually enjoy it,
messy enough to feel like home.
Hi, I’m Andrea.
I have a lot of sewing, quilting, and knitting projects going at any given time, and I was tired of losing track of where I'd left off, what I wanted to do next, and all the little notes I needed to remember.
I tried different ways of keeping track, but they either felt like another chore or left me with scraps of paper and notes scattered everywhere. I wanted something that could hold all the messy little details of making without turning my hobbies into a productivity project.
So I built this for myself in Notion. It's easy to update from my computer, iPad, or phone, so I can pick up right where I left off without hunting for notes or trying to remember what I was doing.
And the more I use it, the more I enjoy my projects. I realized maybe it could do the same for someone else.
I hope it feels like home for your projects, too.
What’s Inside
Track your WIPs, plan what's next, and keep a finished project gallery so you can see how much you've actually made. (It's more than you think.)
Projects
Stop buying the same pattern twice. Keep everything you own in one searchable place.
Pattern Library
Plan handmade gifts before the panic sets in. Track who's getting what and where you are on it.
Gifts
Save tutorials, suppliers, inspiration — anything useful — so you can actually find it later.
Resource Library

This is for you if…
You have projects living in three different notebooks and also your phone and also your brain and none of them are talking to each other.
You keep meaning to get organized but every system you've tried has felt like more work than just winging it.
You want something that actually feels good to open, not something that makes you feel behind.
This isn’t for you if…
You already have a system you love, that works, and you don’t want to change. Keep on keeping on.

Then it's for you too. You decide which hobbies go in it: quilting, miniatures, gardening, baking, whatever you're making or collecting. Add one hobby or ten. The rest of the system is already built.

Very little. You add your hobbies and start dropping projects in. There's a Start Here page and a walkthrough video that show you around, so you don't need to know Notion first. The video shows you step-by-step how to set it up for you!
