    Tomorrow is Father's Day here so I made my Dad a bookmark using Rhonda's method. I added a twist of my own with the pointy end and the tassel! :D

    It was fun to do, I really enjoyed making it. I used my 1 1/2" template that Rhonda sent me and yes, I still have all my fingers! :wink: It was great to go rooting through my scrap bin and use those itty bitty pieces!

    Great idea K!! Love the colors you used. i never thought about the triangular end. That is a good variation! I love to see what other people do with my methods! It is fun to see others imagination at work!
