For today’s Whimsey Wednesday we are making strawberry bookmarks. These are inspired by the strawberry emeries so popular for the last 150 years.
Materials:
- Strawberry velvet, wool, or other tight weave fabric – approx 3″ circle
- Leafy green wool or felt – approx 2″ scrap
- 8″-10″ of ribbon
- Batting
- Optional: beads or embroidery floss
If I Had My Own Blue Box: 
Anna, how did you make bookmark, and why did you called it “strawberry bookmark,” and is this book mark from 1870s
