bookmark


i love to make handmade, one of a kind gifts for loved ones and special kindred spirits.


this bookmark is going to a dear teacher friend.


can you see that teeny tiny heart?


i stitched - freestyle/collage - which is my all time favorite method of stitching (no rules!) on a skinny fabric scrap and then glued it to some vintage lace for a pretty backing.


i added a few doodads to the bottom and voila! it's a pretty!
happy day, friends!

  3. I love them, too, Lynn. They are little handmade treasures. I just got "doodle Sewing" in the mail today but I am going to try to go a little free-style on it...following your good example. They make me smile!
    Hugs,
