     It's going to take a while, I've done one set of trees so far, (almost!) concentration is needed for this pattern! When I printed it off I enlarged the graph to A4 to print it so I could follow it more easily.

     But despite the hard work, it is very lovely!

    Hands up if you like/need/frequently lose bookmarks! I'm always using stray swap cards or receipts etc, but I really have no excuses.  I've just updated the free DIY (printable) bookmarks on my blog here.  All you need is a printer, some A4 cardstock & a pair of scissors.  The PDF prints 8 bookmarks to a page.

    My RiSi promo bookmark printable is still available here, too. Smile

     I do like the bookmark to travel with the book!  I make my own, but they are not in any way similar to yours, Su.  I always send one with a swap.

    I know mine aren't to everybody's taste - more specifically, I designed them to my taste Wink - but I do like to have something to put in along with the book...

    Thanks, and thanks for the reminder (I'm sure I've seen them before but for some reason never done anything) I shall definitely print some of these.

    I'm still using the bookmark you sent me with one of my early swaps! So thank you very much Big Smile

    I am not very good at craft;but enjoy knittig am currently working on a knitted jacket for my 10week old grandson and am going to do a matching one for the 4 year old. Hope I get them finished (abandoned a lot of knitting recently!) and they fit.

    My other creations include photo and postcard collages to have pictures of my family and holidays on display in one frame.Inexpensive and unique artwork

    Collect bookmarks but never use them! Prefer to remember the page number or with hardback fold in the paper cover between the pages

    Here is a card I made for my Sis and BIL's anniversary this weekend. The pic quality isn't great as I used my phone, but it gives an idea of it. This is the outside,

    And here is the inside of it.

    That's lovely and what a great idea with the way it opens.

    Finally, here is the club badge I cross stitched for Ian. The actual stitched area is around 16 by 16 inches, so not the smallest thing I've ever done! He's taking it to be framed on Friday.

     

    And here it is finally framed and on the wall. It's growing on me!

    Ooops, edited this to add the second picture, but didn't bump it up lol

    That's brilliant - can you get kits for all clubs?
