Thanks everybody for thinking of me!

There are lots of ways to make the top for the bookmarks. You can use some simple methods like strips or crazy quilting or you can use some of my methods. They can be pieced or embroidered or appliqued or crossstitch. I have designed some crossstitch bookmarks that my friend Dorothy has done the crossstitch and I added borders and backed them.
I make my bookmarks without any batting and I sew them face to face like a pillow and then turn them rightside out. I don't do binding but you can if you like.

I can help you with patterns for the bookmarks if I know what you are looking for. Just let me know if I can help. Rhonda

Here is a tutorial that I did on my Boston Block bookmarks. I also included alot of bookmark designs in my latest ebook Star Point Blocks
