Now I will go away and you will not hear a thing from me until craft night, except for update on whisk and date. :)

Thanks,

Here's my trial run for the Recipe Binder

This took 1/2 yrd of oilcloth.  That's everything except the front extra square of cherry...which I'm not in love with.

If people want pair up & get coordinating patterns that would be the easiest/cheapest way to get the look I made.

I don't sew often so it takes a while for my brain to kick in...hence the left inside pocket cherries upside down.

I still feel like I want to add something cute to the front or a spoon to the side.  I can't decide.

Just wanted to give you guys a visual for the oilcloth possibilities. :)

Update!

Oil cloth has been bought today for those that I heard back from.  It's pretty cute! I'm excited to see the end results.

Fabric Depot extended the 40% off coupons. Here is the link to the January coupons.

Info for Recipe Binders

With the help of genius Amy Morgan, Lindsay and I have come to a decision on how to do the Recipe Binders that I think you guys will be happy with.

Two Options:
  
#1- Plain binder, cute paper insert in the front clear pocket, clear sheet protectors, extra card stock for those recipes that are not 8.5 x 11, and pretty paper for tabs and dividers. Very similar to the typical FHE or Budget binder that I posted earlier.

#2- Oil Cloth covered binders- Examples are below.

http://lolaagain.blogspot.com/2008/08/binder-cover-tutorial.html

http://simplysuzanna.blogspot.com/2010/10/fabric-covered-binder.html

I am willing to purchase the oil cloth but can only buy up to two options (if someone comes with me-one person/coupon). Most oil cloth @ Fabri Depot ranges from $8.49-$9.49. It will take 1/2 yd if you want to sew the pocket that covers the inside flap completely. Like the bottom example.

Right now oil cloth is 20% off until Monday. I have a coupon that will get one cut of fabric for 40% off. All sales end Monday.  I will go Monday but have to have all orders in by than. Also, have to buy no more than two types since it is for one cut of fabric.


Here is the link to the coupon if you want to go yourself:
https://media.fabricdepot.com/assets/pdf/december_2011.pdf

Here are the kinds of oil cloth Fabric Depot has.

Price Break Down so far- 2 in binder- $3, oil cloth $3, 25 sheet protectors-$2+ (I'm going to find more in bulk cause I think we will all need way more)= $8+(more sheet protectors). Without oil cloth minus $3 from total.
Still need to price-Tabs or cute paper cut with tabs & embellishements (ribbon, spoons, etc)

Okay! Hope that helps. Post a comment on the type of oil cloth you want by Sunday, December 25th. I will go Monday and buy the two kinds that win.

Note-I am only buying oil cloth if you want it. You can bring your own fabric, burlap or have nothing.

Thanks,
Kendall

Cute Cookbook Idea

I love this collection that I once saw at Arts and scraps before the store closed She made the Cutest Cookbook out of a Clip board but sadly it was not on her Blog

I Like this idea but I would want the Large Clipboard with the large Plastic protecting sheets.

Callie and I were Talking on Sunday we thought it would be great if everyone brought 5 of their Favorite recipes copied for everyone so that we can put them in our new cookbooks what do you think? (that’s 45 new recipes to try YAY!)

I look forward to seeing what our amazing group comes up with
