This is a really simple project that makes free standling lace (FSL) bookmarks with a reading theme. If you have young ones who have been assigned "summer reading" these little charmers may help keep them interested!

We added mylar both to make the designs sparkle as well as to add some body to the finished project.

The 4x4 size designs are rotated in the hoop so that the finished bookmark is 4 1/4" tall.

The 5x7 size designs are about 6" tall when finished.

We also added a ribbon loop at the top using 1/8" ribbon.

If you haven't used mylar before, be sure to check the information at this link:
