As a crafter, sewer and a newbie quilter I have loads of fabric scraps in my craft room.
Last year I made my Monsters of Love and I used most of them. A year and many patchwork quilts later my scrap stash increased. I was looking for fun ways to use them up and bookmarks is one of them.
After a few trial and errors, I made some and I am planning to put them in my ETSY shop which will be launched in a couple of months. Meanwhile you can make your own if you follow my tutorial. I hope you enjoy making them and please share your creations on Instagram and tag me (@ourmodusvivendi) so that I can see them.
Bookmark tutorial
This is a method I use to make several ones (approx.. 5) at once.
You need:
- 4 different Fabric scraps of approximately 2” – 2,5” wide and 10” long
- Backing fabric
- Cutting mat and rotary cutter or scissors
- Sewing machine
- Embroidery thread for the tassels
Method:
Arrange your craps in an order that pleases you and sew them together.
