Thanks toAmeroonie Designs idea and tutorial.
They are so easy and fun to make.
you could finish one in just a few minutes!
Its just one of theprojects that it’s possible for you to make with your leftover fabric.
you could also sell these at art fairs and earn a little money.
you’re free to even offer customization and design it however they want it to be.
Or you’re free to use old clothing that they own and turn them into bookmarks.
I am sure they will love it!
you could definitely get creative as you want with this simple project.
Next, cut s 1/2 by 6 rectangle from your interfacing.
Step 2:
Get the front fabric of your bookmark and fuse the interfacing onto the back.
Place it in the center with a 1/4 space on all sides.
double-check you follow the manufacturers instructions.
you’ve got the option to add raw edge applique.
verify that its pointing towards the inside.
The loop should face toward the inside.
The ends should be hanging on top.
Take the back piece of the bookmark and place them right sides together.
confirm to backstitch on the start and end.
Once done, turn it right side out, push the corners, and press with an iron.
Sew around using an edge stitch.
Step 5:
Make the tassel.
Get the yarn and loop it around two of your fingers 30 times.
Next, cut a piece that is one and a half long of your two fingers.
Tie it through the loops.
Insert one end to the loop of your bookmark and tie it a couple of times.
Incorporate the two ties into your loop thread.
Do a double knot.
Cut all the loops and cut the excess.
