Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I have a favourite Quilting "go to " book, but due to over use, it started falling apart. I was devastated.
Then the light bulb went off.
I took it to my local "Staples" office supply store and asked if they could rebind it. They could!! They could rebind it with a spiral binding and it cost less than $10.
I should have done it ages ago. Now it stays open when I'm using it!
Next time I get a new book that isn't already spiral bound, I may just take it in and have it done right away.
I used to be "hot", now it's just "hot flashes!"
What a great idea! Thanks for the tip.
A fabric stash is always missing that one fabric needed to finish the quilt on which you're working.
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!

I was going to say how about making a quilt binding and have it rebound.
I have went to Kinkos with many quilt books to have this done - the books are so much easier to use

good idea!
tjradj, I had the same thing happen to me and also went to Staples. You are right, it's great. Next time I have a book that I use all the time, I will also take it the office store and get it spiral bound. I was surprised at the cost to do this. I thought it was inexpensive.
I am trying to get all my books spiral bound. It is great and surprisingly inexpensive. The last ones I had done were only $3
