Your instructions/illustrations are always so clear. Thanks for a beautiful trim technique.

I have a great way to organize and store patterns. I have been saving and collecting patterns for many years, even inherited a few from my mother from the 40's and 50's. I never liked the boxes I had them in and the pattern envelopes on the older ones were beginning to fall apart. So now my file cabinet is my new pattern filing system. I tape up the sides of a file folder. Write a brief description of the pattern on the file folder tab. Then I cut the pattern envelope open flat and tape or glue it to the front of the file folder. And of course the pattern pieces go inside the folder. The larger size is so nice and then I can file all the patterns in the file cabinet. No more digging through several stacked boxes!
