For the eleventh day of homemade gifts we have something for book lovers – A book marker.
This fun book marker comes from Peterson’s Magazine. It is made of two lengths of ribbons decorated to taste.
Take a length of ribbon, approx 2 feet, and cut it into two pieces one slightly shorter than the other. Fold each ribbon in ‘half’ so you have four different lengths at the ends. Lay the folded ribbons on top of each other with the folds together. Tightly whip the folds together with tiny stitches. Embroider the ribbons to taste. Use pieces of fabric to make the crosses (in Peterson’s or hearts in the case of mine) at the ends of the ribbon.
