    Default Great Use For Leftover Fabric, make a folder!

    I think I would make it bigger and it could be used instead of those cheapo paper folders. A great gift for college bound kids!

    Very cute. Only change I would do is use a hair band instead of elastic.

    My college daughter says she likes to use a different colored folder for each class to keep organized. Let's see.... She'll have 5 classes & it is 4 days until Christmas. I think she will get an IOU. :-)

    Thise are VERY pretty... we must have a group consciensenous ( sp?) anyway.. I saw something similar on youtube, for a card size wallet; loved it so much I've been making in a larger size for my Weight Watcher friends to hold thier trackers, comapnions, etc... I use a piece of velcro/ tab closure, and light weight stabalizer to give it a stiffer shape.

    Neat idea but I agree with you about making it out of something besides the paper folders. Thanks for sharing .
