Bookmarks



Here are 2 book marks I've made so far for Stitching for Literacy. I was working on the Sunflower yesterday. I don't normally stitch while I work unless it's planning but yesterday was like Friday because they are out today, also they had state testing so everything was a little more relaxed. The kids were playing games and I sat by the computer in case problems arose with the movie so I got out my stitching. Three of the students came by to see what I was doing and ask what I was knitting. ;) They all really liked it. One boys 1st asked if I'd make them one :D but I told them how long it took me to make and I wouldn't be able to make one for everyone. I explained what it was for and then he said if they did that here he would pick the one I was working on because he knew who made it. :D

Cute bookmarks! And for such a good cause! Sounds like those kids are potential stitchers!

Is the right hand one a Joan Elliot design?

I love the idea of Stitching for Literacy, I've not heard of it before.

Lovely book marks and cute kids! I had a woman at work ask me to make her a sweater once, I laughed and she said she'd pay me ... I laughed harder. I wouldn't laugh at the kiddos though, very cute!

I love your bookmarks! The one on the right sounds like me.... I am forever buying books, when I know I haven't the time to read them! LOL!
