  Step 1

  These bookmarks are 2 inches x 8 inches in size. I used a old canvas that was sitting around my studio. I found an area of the artwork that I really liked and cut out a 2 in. x 8 in. rectangle.

  Step 2

  I then went to my fabric scrap pile and picked out a pattern that went with the artwork on the front of the bookmark. I cut out a 2 in. x 8 in. strip of the fabric as well.

  Step 3

  These bookmarks can be finished off in several ways.

  1. You can fuse the two fabrics together with a product like Stitch Witchery and sewing them together along the entire border.

  2. You can skip fusing them together first and simply sew them together.

  3. Instead of using a sewing machine you can either hand stitch the two fabrics together.

  4. Last, if you are not into sewing, you can use a fabric glue to glue the two strips of favorite together. Be sure to follow the instructions for that particular fabric glue.

  Step 4

  Once you are done adhering the two fabrics together, punch a hole at the time using grommet pliers. You will need to use the grommet pliers since the two fabrics together is pretty thick to hole punch through. Add ribbon, leather cord, suede cord - really, anything that you prefer to finish the bookmark off!
