Being Resourceful~
My little binding saver~
After cutting and ironing, I wrap it around a bathroom tissue roll and pin back to itself until ready to use. All bindings go into a little basket.
I do the same thing with one small addition - I measure how long the binding is so I know clearly if I will have enough for the anticipated project. I usually write that figure on the inside of the tp roll. Isn't it fun to have your craft items organized? Keep up the great work - I enjoy your blog! Chris
This is a great idea. Love those stripes, they will make a nice binding.
ReplyDeleteExcellent idea, and I love that stripey binding!
ReplyDeleteI Put it onto a sampler quilt! oh so pretty!

ReplyDeleteGreat idea! You could also cut down a paper towel roll for several. Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteNeat! I use empty thread spools--I always have some around, but if I ever run out, I will try TP tubes!
