Line o' Hearts Bookmark



The 11th bookmark is now complete! Only one more to go to reach my goal for these bookmarks for literacy programs.

The inspiration for this bookmark came from a book of simple borders. I made my hearts a bit bigger than the ones in the book, then added the zig-zag detail to help 'fill out' the sides. These hearts now look all energtic. Dare I say, they look like they're beating?

OK. So I get carried away a little. This was fun to stitch, though. I liked picking the colors on this one.

The fabric is an 18 ct aida banding for with a pretty pink scalloped edge. It measures about 2" x 6.5".
