Fantastic projects! I really appreciate the tutorials! I have all the supples I need to make these particular projects. My daughter is a 4th grade teacher in an area where the students are living below the poverty line and who've endured a lot of trauma in their young lives already. They truly appreciate gifts like this....it reminds them that they are loved and their classroom efforts are celebrated. The kids bond with my daughter, a truly gifted teacher, who instills a love for learning in her students. March 2nd is national "Read Across America Day". I'm trying to raise the funds or get portions of the materials required donated, so that I can sew each of them (27 students), a reading pillow or book rest pillow of their own. I'd also like to be able to purchase at least one 4th grade level fictional book to go along with the reading pillows. Fingers crossed!! Thanks! ~~Christy~~
Love the ideas ... but you didn't give dimensions. Now, I understand that this is personalized, so no measurements may be needed, but for the pen holder one, it's kinda required.
Magnetic bookmarks are a game changer. Love your projects and can't wait to try them. Thank you for posted.

Thank you! I love this plan! What an amazing goal and way to bring the love of reading together!
How are you not hitting the magnet when you sew the top stitch? 😬
I like magnet book marks better. I used your ideas plus I added magnets to the corner fabric bookmarks. They stay in place really well.
That’s brilliant! I never thought to add them to the corner ones too! Thanks for the tip!
I have made 200 corner bookmarks. This is a great idea
Love love love this!
Yay! I’m glad! Can’t wait to see what you make!
I’m trying to get back into books and start seeing. I’ll have to try this!
They’re fun and easy to do! Definitely a great “break the ice” project!
Thank you .
This is so cool! My kid keeps losing his bookmarks. Now I can make him a ton of these, in his favourite anime characters :D
YES!! Bookmarks are perfect for scraps and specialty fabrics!
Very cool!
Thanks!
The magnet in the tutorial doesn’t look like the one linked.
Magnetic they fit any size book

Hi April, At the start of each section there is a bit about “Materials Needed” and all of the measurements are listed there.
Where do you buy the non adhesive magnets?
I got mine from Daiso, the 100yen store
