Reworked Wednesday - Frayed Edge Bookmark

Welcome to Reworked Wednesday, Week 2!  This week I'm featuring a project of my own, a frayed edge bookmark.


This great project is something that I came up with when I was looking at my piles of fabric scraps.  I didn't like the idea of throwing them out as most were large enough to do something with, I just didn't know what.  I came up with the idea of a bookmark when one day I grabbed a piece of scrap paper to hold my place while reading.  The rest just fell into place.  


I love the results and they make great gifts!  Here are just a few examples of the bookmarks I made.  I'm especially proud of the tulip bookmark as it was featured in the Autumn 2011 edition of Green Craft Magazine.  Stayed tuned to my blog as I will post a tutorial in the next few days!

  3. Super cute! I am SO in love with sewing right now. I think I might enjoy it as much as printing (which is my actual trade). Thank you so much for sharing!
