It is a business that makes copies for businesses. They are very reasonable.

I had no idea you could do that! It must make a great difference when you use the book!

I think that's a great idea, and some of my Quilt in a Day books are spiral bound, making it much easier to follow directions on a quilt.

Quilt books work sooo great after adding the spiral.

I didn't know it was so inexpensive to do. I bought a quilt book "Egg Money" and it was bound that way and I love it! I think I'll go through my books and pick out the ones I most want to do that to and take them in. We have a 'Copy Club' in the next town over and I bet they do it.

I have done that with several of my books, especially the manuals for my sewing machines. I am getting ready to do that to my Dear Jane book before I start on that quilt!

It is well worth the price!

Oh boy...more money to spend. My quilt library now numbers over 350 books (think I like books?) and most of them are soft bound.

Don't know if I have room to put binders on my bookshelves...the books barely fit as they are! Will probably look into spiral binding some of my "go to" books.
