As you may know, some of us beginners tend to waste fabric while cutting for small projects. These projects have put a new light on wasted fabric. Thank you so much for sharing these ideas. No more waste of fabric and money. 😂
I like these easy-to-make bookmarks. For the long rectangular bookmarks, I don't hand stitch the opening because I find the top stitching closes the opening. Thanks for the lovely ideas.
Thank you so much for the detailed video tutorial!! I love how you show every step. It was very easy to follow for beginners like myself. I made a set of the 2nd style to gift to family and am so happy with the beautiful results.
It's a Sunbeam Hot-2-Trot Travel Steam Iron. I got it from Amazon. I do a lot of small sized sewing projects and it's the perfect size for working on a table top. I use it along with my wool ironing mat.
Hi! I added craft interfacing on one side of all 3 book markers. For the last marker (quilted), I didn't think I needed interfacing for the front piece since it was thicker with all of the vertical seams from piecing it. The interfacing is use to add a little "stiffness" to the fabric. I hope this helps!
Good question. I decided to add the stitch around the bookmark afterwards. Wasn’t my original plan. You can definitely just stitch it closed with the machine.

I keep a large stash of straps. I do go through it at times and get rid of some when it gets too large. But I tend to regret it later.
My favourite is the third one where you made the Pieced Book Mark from scraps. I am planning to make that one. Thanknyou.
Wonderful! It was fun and easy to make.

Why did you not put interfacing in the last one?

Why not stitch over opening with machine all the way around?
Good question. I decided to add the stitch around the bookmark afterwards. Wasn’t my original plan. You can definitely just stitch it closed with the machine.
No need to hand stitch the side closed. When you stitch around the end, the side will naturally close.
That is true! I think I decided to do the topstitch afterwards. Thanks for pointing that out!
