Nerd Games Tracking Notebook

Over in the 2026 Winter Nerd Games, @Tapestry generously shared the tracking pages that she had created. While I use a color coded Google doc to plan out what I want to make, I thought I could use her tracking pages to keep a record of what I actually finished.

I happened to have a composition book that I had jazzed up with some decorative paper, stamping, and ribbon, but I didn’t know what to use it for. But, when I saw Tapestry’s colorful tracking sheets, I decided that the notebook was a perfect place to use them!

I resized them to fit on the pages, and printed them out. I’m going to attach everything to the right hand pages only, so I can have room to add any notes on the left hand pages.

While keeping 2 records might seem like overkill, I think it will work because they’ll serve different purposes. And, I like that this is a more tangible record of what I have accomplished.

Thanks, @Tapestry for sharing your pages! I love them!

Your notebook looks so fun and cheerful, I love it! And I’m so glad the tracker pages are useful. I don’t find it overkill to have 2 records. Whatever works works.

It’s funny to me how adding in the pre-printed pages gives me permission to use the notebook. I never would have thought to use it to track my projects otherwise. But, the page designs just appealed to me so much! And, it eliminates that “blank page syndrome,” where I don’t want to mess up a new notebook. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Such a great idea to paste them in the notebook! I have the blank page syndrome, too, and can see this totally helping!
