Love this-I work at a school and we call that paper GOOS paper - Good On One Side. I might make these for some of my teacher friends to make the GOOS Paper more fun to use.

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

I love that acronym Lori. It's so cool😀

[@robertacamper6819]

A year later I just watched this. What a good idea.

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Thanks Roberta😁

Good to use at home to keep extra paper from getting messy on one edge...kids often misjudge how much paper their binder will actually hold.

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

That's a great idea Joy😀

[@karentoynton8948]

Great idea and looks really nice to give as a gift..

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Thanks Karen. They'd make perfect gifts too😀

A little fusible webbing would make the job with the Matilda product easier - just turn it into fusible yourself..........then petition Matilda to make a fusible version as well lol. As well another reuse/recycle way of doing this would be to replace the Matilda stiffening for the body with the cover of a broken ring binder. It also would make it so you could use it easily on a lap, too. It would be easier to stitch it all first, then slip[ the cover in and top stitch the opening closed - or all around whichever suits you.

Just what I was coming to suggest. I’ve also just used glue stick when in a pinch.

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

These are great ideas Bigs. I spoke to the company that supplies Matilda's Own, and they don't want to make fusible products due to the chemicals and effect it may have on the environment😀

What a cool idea, as usual Christine. I saw you had posted this video but had to finish prepareing dinner before I could watch it, fastest meal prep ever, lol. I may put a pocket or two on the front or inside front for small note pieces. I like to cut up previously used paper into scratch notes, and I am always looking for something to put them in that is handy. Thank you again for the unique, useful inspiration.❤💙

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

That sounds like a great idea Judi. I'm so glad you still managed to get dinner done too🤣

[@judifisher8703]

Thanks pat😀

[@bonniewoodfine136]

Would spray basting your peltex with 505 help hold your fabric if you don't have fusible lining?

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Yes Bonnie. Spray basting would work. I had my tin at the shop and was too lazy to go get it😁

[@itsmelaura1533]

Lovely! I think I will make one for my grandson! I was wondering what kind of Peltex you think would work best, do you happen to still have the number? They have so many to choose from.

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Laura, the one I used to use was Pellon Peltex 71F. It was fusible. Spotlight should have it, or something suitable. Independant quilt shops may have it too. Decovil heavy will also work.😀

[@debbiehall4155]

Wonderful product! I wish you much luck selling them. Please let us know how it goes.

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Thanks Debbie. I'll definitely let you know😀

[@MJBJ-cb2jd]

Would old notebook covers work in nstead of peltex?

[@ChristinesHomeAffairs]

Yes, I think it would. Even those cheap plastic cutting boards will work😀
