tHe PerFect color
Both grosgrain ribbon an velcro are anufacture in an colors. But
what if ou ust cant fin the color ou want? In saples, I sipl
use fabric paint on white ribbon an velcro to custoize the color to
atch artwork. Spritz the ribbon or velcro with water, appl a flui
fabric paint, such as de-na-Flow or dr. Ph. martins, an allow to r.
The hook sie of the velcro is soewhat stiff an the loope sie quite
ense, so liqui fabric paint works best.

Qu i l ted booKMArKs
To ake a bookark with a quilte front, cut the fabric an batting each
3" 7". Quilt the pieces together, an then tri to 2" 6". If oure
aking ultiple quilte bookarks, rather than quilting each piece
iniiuall, laer a large square of fabric on top of a atching batting
square an quilt. Its easier to stitch on the large size, an faster for
cutting ultiple fronts.
When I ake a large quilt, I quilt a few inches past the intene finishe
ege, then tri the excess prior to bining. These quilte scraps can
be use for bookark fronts. A a few ebellishents, cut to size,
an then construct a bookark using our quilte an ebellishe
piece in place of the plain front. Saples oue ae while tring out
a new technique are another great source of esign inspirationthe
purple/turquoise/green bookark was create fro a long-forgotten
experient.

tipsUse a arking pen that wont
blee when it coes into
contact with the glue.
When instructe to trace a
shape using the tin, alwas
use the sharp ege. This gies
a ore accurate shape an,in the case of the botto, a
saller circle.
Be extra careful when
triing batting close to
the stitching line. Appliqu
scissors work well for this task
an ake nicking the fabric
with the scissors less likel.
