My mom was so awesome. I found the kit to this in her things and since I love the Tudor times, I stitched it right up. Of course I had to add my favorite Rainbow Gallery gold braid to give it extra sparkles...you know how I am with the sparklie things.
I found the greatest thing to back bookmarks with!!
Its strap fabric off the rollie thing in the trim department.
The best things about the strap fabric is:
1. Its the perfect width
2. Its firm but not too firm
3. Its not too thick at all
4. And the edges are finished, so no extra bulk!
I did add a tiny strip of Skirtex (love that product) inside so the bookmark wouldn't be floppy. I just don't care for floppy bookmarks.
This is the first bookmark I've ever done. And I'm really happy with it. :)

Looks fabulous! I am not sure by what you mean by strap fabric?
Strap fabric is what people would use when sewing a tote bag. It comes on a roll in the trim department at the fabric store.
It also came in ecru.
Thank you for visiting and leaving me a comment AND a compliment!!!!!!
