Title: Where do you store your Janet Arnold POF books?
Post by: gem on May 07, 2011, 03:59:10 PM
This afternoon I've been gathering up my sewing library and relocating it to my new sewing cupboard (yay!). Everything fits, except my Margo binders and my POF. I've never really had a good place to keep the POF books; they're an awkward size, plus they're heavy and floppy. Has anyone else managed to find a good home for theirs?

I have all 4 of my POF books aying down flat ona  shelf below where my extended Library of books are. That is in part to their odd shape.

Mine are just wedged in at the end of the shelf above the Lily bench, along with the Eleanora, QE's Wardrobe, and a few other over-size books turned on their edges...  I'm just wondering if I have room for the new acqusitions: Pattern Magic 1 & 2, The Art of Manipulating Fabric, and Patterns for Costume Accessories.

Mine are lying on top of all the other books on the bookshelf, with their binding to the right of the book shelf.

Hahahaha!

I store mine on top of the costume books in the shelf. It's the books I use the most anyway, so they're ready to be browsed through at any time... :D

Book shelf lying down so that they are in easy access but also? Don't get messed up.

I also put tape on the 3 sides to keep the covers nice.  I have already had to replace one of them as it got damaged  :(
