A quick and easy sewing task, great for presents and personal use.
You will need:
16cm x 7cm white material (1cm on each side for seam allowence)
14cm x 5cm thick card
Threads and scraps of material of choice for applique/embroidery
Fabric glue
Tassel/ribbon
1. Iron your white fabric.
2. Pin and sew seams of 1cm on every edge.
3. Applique/embroider pattern of your choice. I chose to do A B C going downwards in matching colours.
4. Iron flat then glue onto card.
5. Add tassel/ribbon to decorate.
I personally think this is a great, quick and easy gift. Enjoy and please feelfree to ask any questions. :)
ReplyDeleteI think that a bookmark would make a great Christmas present for anyone who likes reading books. I also think it would make a great birthday present, or a wonderful "thank you". If I got a handmade bookmark for a present, I would be really happy and use it all the time,

ReplyDeleteDear Amy,
ReplyDeleteMany thanks again for setting up your inspirational blog. However, I have been waiting eagerly for the shopping bag instructions and they have not appeared. Will you bring joy to millions of readers and publish them?
