I got the design from Adorable Designs. There was a tut that came with the design. There are three parts to making the bookmark. First it stitches the design (5x7 hoop), then in the same hooping it does the outline for the backing. You cut those out, spray baste together, putting the tassel in, then go back to the machine and set the machine for the final outline stitching. Very easy and I like the results. So did everyone I gave them to!
