I sold a bunch at the recent 613Flea holiday market in November 2016, and will also be giving some to my bookclub members and other booky friends this holiday season. Hooray!
For a lover of reading, a lover of sewing and a lover of scrap busting, these bookmarks are the prefect labour of love for me. Essentially I just went through some of my lovely-patterned but smaller scraps, and after sorting into some color/pattern families, I sewed them into random but pleasing sheets of pieced fabric. From there, I cut the results into 3x9 strips, sandwiched them with interfacing and a backing fabric, sewed it up with a gap to turn them right side out and topstitched after a solid pressing with the iron. They are of course a bit fussy and time-consuming to make, but are oh so satisfyingly book-y and scrap-bust-y to complete!
