'Bottoms up' farbric bookmarks

(PLEASE all you followers of mine ~ sign up for the giveaway!!! Click here for pics and details. (Crochet flower garland and Ebru original Art) I really want to say thank you to all of you for being a part of this journey with me, so sign up to win.)

Ok so YES I have this thing for bookmarks.  I actually have grand sewing plans but time and me, well we seem to fight about priorities. So I end up creating modest items that help me try differnt things on my sewing machine.  For these bookmarks I was playing with the differnt stitch settings. Anyway, I created these little bookmarks and I have to say out of the 4 different kinds I have made (here, here and here) these being the 4th, they are my favorite.  They are so thin and well just downright cute, with those tiny ribbons stubs sticking out each side.  

Hope you enjoy the color and sweetness as much as me. 
Up is down and down is up with these bookmarks. I couldn't decide what to name them:
*Ribbon tabby bookmarks
*Both ends Bookmarks
*Stubby Fabric Bookmarks
or
*Bottoms up Bookmarks :) The last was the winner. :)

I know I am not the only color lover out there that could sit and play with fabric squares and scraps all day. :) I also have really starting enjoying finding projects with ribbon (since it is so easy and inexpensive to purchase here), thus, the ribbon chandelier we made for the girls dollhouse. (click here if you haven't seen it, it makes me smile and I am sure it will make you smile.) :)

Oh so very practical. :)


~ Enjoy your Monday.

    I love cute bookmarks! There's just one little problem. I have a Kindle. Maybe I need to go find me some books, with paper!

    Those are so pretty. They look simple enough for me to make too. My sewing skills are limited.
