I’ve had some questions, both on the blog comments and personal emails asking for more details about the Bind It All machine I used for the Coaster Calendar project and the Tag Book.
In the Coaster Calendar class this week, each person bound their own calendar when they were done decorating it. I taught each person how to do it and they all loved the Bind it All machine! The machine is from Zutter and you can view it here. It’s small and light weight and pretty straight forward to use. OK, well, after searching the internet for "tips" and "how to’s" for 2 hours, it was easy to use ! LOL
Supplies can be found on many sites. I purchased (a ton of) coils from this site: https://www.bonniesbest.com/bind-it-all.htm You can do a google search for Bind it All or search on ebay for the machine and binding supplies if you are interested in ordering.
Now that I have purchased a life-time supply of coils, we’ll be binding EVERYTHING that doesn’t move in future classes!
Here are some projects or tutorials for the Bind It All that you might find helpful (and will save you a 2 hour search on google):

Up to what length can you bind something?
TIA~Melissa
Thanks for the links, Patty! I got a Bind It All for Christmas and haven’t gotten a chance to play with it. Will have to check out the links and ideas later!
ok…I NEED one of these…What would you suggest as to what size coils to buy…what did you use for the calender? I’m thinking of making little photo books…what do you think?
Where did you buy your machine?
Thanks!

Patty,
Got to your blog via Barbara Welch. Great information and wonderful cards! Thanks so much! ~chris
Yippee! I can’t wait to get home and try some new things. Thanks for the info. I’m in Florida right now but when I get home I’m unwrapping my machine!
Could you let us know the size of coils that I should be getting as I am a beginner at this? I know a bunch of us would appreciate it. Thank you.
Cheryl
Patty, I am planning on purchasing the Bind it All soon and am wondering which size coils do you recommend to begin with? I liked your 3″x3″ mini envelope book…which coils did you use for that one? I’ll probably want to get a couple of different sizes. Any help would be appreciated! Have a very Happy New Year! ~Jackie
Hi Patty, I know these posts are a few years old, however I just wanted to thank you for the heads up on the machine and such. I just ordered my bind it all and I’m sooooo excited to finally cross over to the bind it all world, I can’t wait!!! thanks again for the great info. Lorena 🙂
