Full description
Stunning bookmark that has eco-credentials as well as good looks. Soft and tactile, it combines a beautiful crewel style embroidered textile with layers of pure wool twill and wool felt. A great stocking filler, and easy to post, I think one of my bookmarks would also be a gorgeous gift for a special teacher.
This bookmark is slightly larger than the others I make, so ideal for books big and small, the fuzziness of the wool backing helps keep it in place.
Zero waste - all the textiles are reclaimed or offcuts.
I reclaimed the cream embroidered fabric from a curtain sample book destined for landfill - I used most of the piece for one of my Luxury Christmas Stockings, but had enough left over for a few bookmarks.
The soft blue wool layer is surplus from making medieval re-enactment garments, and the backing is a sand coloured wool felt offcut from making my felt playmats.
The floral themed fabric has been machined to wool fabric using blanket stitch to catch stray fibres. After straight stitching these layers to the felt backing, I frayed the wool to give even more texture.
