March Christmas Through The Year…

Well, I barely made it! Here is my finish for March:

I covered a small three ring binder that I picked up from the Dollar Store for a friend of mine. I love it so much that I want one for myself! I’m also going to make a couple more for more friends now that I figured out a pattern for this size book! I stopped at the dollar store tonight and picked up 5 more binders…unfortunately, they didn’t have any more girly colors left. :-(

On another, but related note, I’m hoping someone might be able to help me find a particular material I am looking for. Here’s a picture:

I really want to make one of the binders out of this material! If you have any clues as to where I might be able to purchase some, please let me know!

cute little book! Have you checked ebay for the fabric?

Hi, That fabric is by Kari Pearson KP Kids Fame and I believe it is called natures play. Unless it has been reprinted it is an older line. It was by Quilting Treasures or VIP.
Here is one almost the same, it might work if you cannot find the other.

That is SO CUTE!!! I have some of those lace flowers myself - this is a GREAT idea and I think I might have to borrow it - you've inspired me!

Gorgeous binder cover...it would look great in that bug print, but I have to agree with Jane's Fabrics and Quilts..it's an old print from about 11 years ago.
