While you are out shopping for Christmas gifts, you might want to make a note to also pick up a 3 ring notebook to keep all of your pattern information together. In her introduction Sue says:
Tip: Place each month’s pattern in a 3-hole notebook to keep the pattern pages all together.
In this way, you will be able to keep your patterns organized and refer to an earlier
lesson, if needed. You can also keep the complete list of fabric (found in the
Introduction) readily available for future use.
I would like to add that I also use 3 hole page sleeves in my notebook to keep my templates safely corralled in the proper month as well as monthly dividers. These can all be found at your local office supply store. If you don't already have one, you might also consider getting a circle template in the drafting department. It will allow you to make your own templates for any size circle you need for any appliqué project.
