Very clever of you, Mabel, to find the solution - it looks perfect!
And the key-holder is lovely.

I finished the thank you bookmark -- I used a whipstitch finish that goes like a seam down the middle of the back, and double running stitch along the short sides:

Mabel as always you have some stunning work. The puupy I could just kidnap, the book mark is so individual and the key case is so practical.

Aww I love that dog, he is so cute just wanna take him home. The keycase is wonderful, will definitely have to try that one day ( would make a great housewarming gift wouldn't it).

Your folk sampler us beautiful, I love the blues.

And your bookmark is really great, the cat so cute and I love the finish on it
