What to do your favorite quilting books

Img_0564

Here you see one of my favorite quilting books, 40 Fabulous Quick Cut Quilts by Evelyn Sloppy (gotta love her name).  I have used this book for a couple of quilt projects and have marked pages with little Post-It flags for about a dozen more projects I would love to do in the future.  This book was getting so loved that the binding was starting to come apart.  A friend suggested I take it to my local Kinkos copy shop and have them put a spiral binding on it, which turned out to be a brilliant suggestion.  My book is like new, and now lies perfectly flat when I open it to follow pattern directions.  I highly recommend doing this with any favorite quilting or cook book.

  3. That is a good idea. Not sure if there are Kinko’s in Canada. It sure looks nice with the spiral binding though.
