They make great gifts and are easy to make. Using scraps of fabric and they can be mailed easily in an envelope along with a card.

Those are fabulous! Your workmanship is excellent. I'll bet they are well-received!

Tartan 12-18-2012 11:35 AM

Great bookmarks! Why didn't I market the tool to do those? We used to make bookmarks in paper just like this technique approx. 50 years ago.

Beautiful bookmarks, you did a wonderful job making them.

What a wonderful present these will make!

catladyquilts 12-19-2012 06:51 AM

what a wonderful idea, I have that tool and they are fun. It's too bad I never think of these things in time to actually make some for gifts. Maybe next year

..and I bet if you did a bunch again and went to a craft show you would be a hit!!!!! now with all the scrapbooking, card making out there..........

solstice3 12-20-2012 10:41 AM

they turned out very nice

Susan01948 12-20-2012 01:01 PM

You know I think I remember those too. I was thinking that it shouldn't be so hard to make these with out the ruler. I didn't find them the last time I was shopping and if I can manage with out one, I will save a couple of bucks.

crtwelvecats 12-20-2012 01:27 PM

those are great i'm the only one that still reads books in the family so will have to use up some more scraps for some bookmarks what a good idea. everyone that reads has kindles now. but i love an old fashion book.

katesnanna 12-20-2012 05:12 PM

These are fabulous. Well done

sewdamncute 12-20-2012 07:12 PM

Hmmm. I have that ruler someplace...you've inspired me to find it and make some!

rocklady 12-23-2012 12:38 PM

I'm getting one of the rulers for Christmas from my daughter. Happy Dance. I can hardly wait. I used a friend's ruler on a quilt retreat a few weeks back and can hardly wait to get my hands on mine. I had found it on-line at Amazon and sent my daughter the link - hint, hint.

busy fingers 12-23-2012 02:06 PM

They are fabulous. Great gifts.

twoxover 12-23-2012 02:13 PM
