I had seen a beautiful butterfly quilt on this board ages ago, it was from an old Better Homes and Gardens quilt lovers book 3.. I searched everywhere but couldn't find it below $45 including shipping. I almost gave up but with one more try there it was, in USA and costing $20 including shipping, it was used but I took a chance and have waited since before Christmas but today my lovely book came, I was expecting a paper back but it is hard cover spiral bound almost new with the pattern sheets intact. Luck was with me for once and I am a very Happy Bunny. A small thing I know but after a difficult year a small happiness is so very welcome.

Good for you, I am happy for you. Small happinesses, in my opinion, are the best!

I am glad it worked out for you. I have gotten several books on line and have been pleased with all of them.

I have alot of my books spiral bound. Love the way the pages turn and I can make copies of patterns easier so that I can mark up the areas I want to mark and my book is still pristine. I am a book hoarder. I have a problem. ha I'm waiting now for the Elm Creek Pattern books to arrive.

When you have your books spiral bound how do you keep them? Do you use a notebook or have several books in a notebook or do you just keep the covers.
