Cinch - Hole Patterns (a few fun ways to bind)

[twink-a-dink]

I know I promised this to someone last year (or at least it feels that way). I made this when I got my Cinch (5/2010); I only had to go through 2 TB of data to find it

This has been done in Excel and I have made 2 versions, one for those with Excel 1997-2003 and one for those using Excel 2007-2010.

There are tons of combinations one can configure, so this is just a starter.

I'd love to know if anyone found this useful and had fun with different binding patterns.

Keep in mind, you don't always have to bind w/ the wires ... use rings, ribbon, twine, jute, shoe strings (new ones of course) - whatever your creative hearts desire!

Questions, requests, corrections and comments welcomed

Please link to the thread if you want others to try it.


Enjoy

I took Twink-a-Dink's Excel spreadsheet and converted it to a PDF, so we can have an easier to view and print version. Plus this way you don't need to have a spreadsheet program to view it! Just click on the link in this post (below) to get it.

Thanks so much Twink-a-Dink, I have enjoyed seeing the Cinch projects on your blog, especially the one on how to center without all the measuring!!!!

Thank you for converting for me as my PDF software is being fickle

Thanks for putting this together. I haven't used it yet, but expect it will be very useful.

All thanks go to Twink-a-Dink, she did all that fantastic work!!! I only spent five minutes converting her labor of love into a PDF, lol!

love this!!! I am showing a bunch of ladies tomorrow how to use the cinch machine at my LSS (so I of course have to learn more about it myself first hee hee) and this file is great! thank you!!!!

Now I need to find projects using the cinch to do with them tomorrow and have a tone of 4" coasters I can bind. I would love to see Tink's blog but can't find it anywhere- does anyone have the blog addy for Tink they can share?
