    My DD gave me a fancy iron scroll-work cookbook holder for Christmas last year. It has never held a cookbook but lots of quilting books and patterns. It's tilted just right so I can easily see the pages.

    Wow, I never thought of that but mine will be on it's way to an office supply store to be spiral bound. How neat and easy to use then. A great big thanks...

    I didn't know that you could get an already published book spiral bound. Sounds nice.
    I get it done with all of mine that need to stay open in order for me to use them. It's not expensive either. 8-)

    I've had some of my books done that way and absolutely love it. It definitely makes them easier to use, as you can flip to the page you want and it stays put.
