Notes to Self . . . 

When you registered for this project you pledged to keep a time log and send in a photo.

These are important elements in the life of TSBS, and will become part of the project's catalogue.  
No need to wait for a good hair day.  Just snap some part of you with some part of your stitching.  Save it in .jpg format, at least 180 dpi, and email it to torahstitchbystitch@gmail.com.
We have a volunteer archivist, and we welcome more than one photo, and especially when there are groups of people working together. Of course, if you insist on getting dressed up and hiring a professional photographer . . .  

In addition and much appreciated . . . 

Please jot down anecdotal thoughts that emerge while working on the project.  Several people have noted that their portion, which was assigned to them purely because it was the next one available, has developed special meaning.  Others have decided to honour specific people through a verse of their stitching.  All of these stories add immensely to the richness of our collective experience and the beauty of our scroll.
