    WOW! If I had an embroidery machine, I would make my book review club members each one of these! But, sadly, I don't..

    Beautiful bookmarks! I checked your blog and you have some wonderful projects to share and loads of inspiration. I love your postcard tutorial, I am inspired to try my hand at a bookmark or two. Thanks for sharing.

    You can make these without an embroidery machine!!! I don't have one either!! Just need a machine with a good blanket stitch, satin stitch, and able to do free motion quilting!! Simple :^)

    The edges are satin stitched. I first go around with a regular zigzag to hold it all together, then satin stitch with a 3.5-4.0 width 3-4 times around. You get a good build up of thread and the quilt edges are completed covered!! Then I do a short straight stitch in the ditch and lock the stitches. Simple!! :^)
