Vintage Bookmarks from Anita Goodesign - these are actually stitched on WSS and an applique technique with material and then a back is put on and both front and back gets cut away - just before the satin stitching to finish it off - I have attached some of the Criswell Tassels - these might be long - but I love the look with this bookmark. What do you think?
211079Shirlene, They are beautiful. Is the one with "S" for you? I like the yellow flowers.

70755These are lovely, my choice would be the one with the initial. I love stitching bookmarks, they are always useful, light to post and make lovely gifts for that "just because" present.

Thank you dear - I did have to cut out the flower and insert the initial - as they didn't have one with the set - so I am thrilled that you like that one. I agree - bookmarks are wonderful for gifts. *4U

44904Ils sont vraiment superbes, avec une petite touche ancienne très à la mode en ce moment, du moins en France.
J'aimerais beaucoup pouvoir en faire pour Noël mais ma brodeuse refuse de travailler. Elle fait du sur place et fait des noeuds. Heureusement elle est encore sous garantie.
Toutes mes félicitations Shirlene pour ces réalisations.

Only 3 of them for right now - the other pictures were not clear enough.

Anita, it does doesn't it - much more time than FSL - that is for sure - I wished I could whip these out fast - but I have to take my time to make them nice - thank you so much *4U
