    I am starting this thread so everyone who is making the DP bookmark can post any pics you want.

    I encourage everyone to post a pic of the blocks you are making now. I think everyone will be interested to see what fabrics you are using and how you are faring with the yoyos etc.

    so I would love to see some pics going on here now and not waiting til the bookmarks are all done!!

    What do you say ladies and gents?

    We would love to see your bookmark in progress!!

    I went through the tutorial, Rhonda and I think it's something I can do. I'd love to try it this weekend. If you hear far-off screams, you'll know that I need to ask questions. :-D

    Had a migraine yesterday evening so did not work on them. I started this morning and have gotten this far. I placed them in a plastic disposable plate and sprayed them with starch. I am going to leave them to dry until tomorrow.

    Here they are all saturated with starch and waiting to dry.

    the only thing is that I iron mine after I spray. So did you iron after you spray or leave them to dry without ironing? I like mine really flat so I iron. That also dries the spray some too. It's sort of like using steam only it's the spray instead of steam.
