- Not only are these bookmarks functional and adorable, but they are also really quite simple to make. This video is my raw 😂 first attempt at making one, and I love the end result!
That said, I know there are other ways that you could go about making them. This is certainly one way!  🤗🎉

Can you kindly tell me what fabric are you using for this???
Sure thing! So I give a little breakdown of the project in the video description, but in fairness, I only referred to my fabric as “a piece of fabric“. That’s mainly because it really is something that you can do with any fabric that you feel comfortable getting a needle and thread through. That said, I do believe that I used a piece of pretty cotton that I had.🤩
Remember…don’t be confined by how someone else has done something.🤗Let it INSPIRE you!
Did you do anything special to sew through the cardboard and felt?
My fabric squares are
4“ x 4“.
The corner piece is a
4“ x 4“ piece of felt that was cut in half on the diagonal.
What I used in between the fabric pieces was two pieces of card stock,
3 3/4” square that I glued together; but you absolutely could use a piece of thin chipboard! So whatever you’re sandwiching between your two squares of fabric is going to be about a quarter inch shorter all the way around. When I stitched, I was stitching through just the fabric and the felt.
Remember, I filmed this video while I was “winging it “ in creating the bookmark. Is there a better way? I am sure there is! 😂Would I do a differently?
I probably would because like most projects, I’m usually figuring out better ways to do something as I go along. Did I love my finished result? Absolutely!
The take away: don’t be afraid to experiment and try new things. 🎉 It’s the best way to learn and it’s a great way to discover what you can do when you put your mind to it!
HAVE FUN!!! 🤗
What stitches are those called, the ones in the edges?
I did blanket stitches on the outer edges. You could certainly do a whip stitch.
How many strands of embroidery floss do you use for the stitching?
For the white flower, I believe I used 3 strands of floss, the yellow daisies,
2 strands, and for the “K” I used 3 strands. Do what you are comfortable with and what produces the look that you want! 🤗
