About this deal

Have you ever wondered what to do with those small scraps of fabric left over from larger embroidery and sewing projects? One way to use them up is to make bookmarks! try decorative elastic bands (I didn’t have one at the time, but these printed elastics look so much fun), The twist of the buttonhole stitch is right on the design line, and the stitches are about 1/8″ long.

The final step in making your own hand-embroidered bookmark is to trim away the excess fabric right around the whole bookmark. Felt crafts are cheap, durable, and effortless to make. Felt is versatile; you can make so much more than kids crafts. If you have any questions about making this bookmark, add them to the comments below and I’ll be happy to answer them. If you have any of your own tips to share about making hand-embroidered bookmarks, feel free to chime in below, too! For the edge treatment, I worked a buttonhole stitch all around the outside of the bookmark, using three strands of watermelon red floss. Then I whipped the buttonhole stitch with two strands of white floss. Bring the needle with the new thread up inside the last buttonhole stitch, and continue buttonholing, working the first stitch over that tiny anchor stitch. You’ll cover it right up and the join will be invisible.

Embroidered bookmark materials:

This is another nice thing about working on linen. If your design is perfectly squared up – if you were careful in the set-up and drew your design line along the fabric grain – you can use the weave of the fabric to help place your stitches. Just follow the line formed by the weave of the fabric to judge the length of each stitch. First, you need to end the old thread. To do this, just take a tiny stitch right over the last buttonhole stitch, to anchor it.

If you’re using a fusible interfacing other than Mistyfuse, it should be the lightest possible fusible interfacing you can find. Follow the manufacturers instructions to bond the two pieces of fabric together.Bookmarks make fantastic gifts for the readers in your life. If you have a birthday celebration looming on the horizon or a graduation gig right around the corner, you can whip up an embroidered bookmark in no time flat and head to the party prepared, with a perfect little gift. The dots are worked in padded satin stitch in white using one strand of floss, and outlined in watermelon red in stem stitch, using two strands of floss.
