I have a question about stitching bookmarks. I have a design in mind that I would like to make into a bookmark for someone. I have seen the precut bordered stitchable bookmarks at joanns and online but I would like to know, do they make them in 32 count? because I haven't been able to find a count on them online. The design I want is actually rather large but if I stitch it over one on 32 count it comes out to 2"x7". If bookmarks don't come in 32 count, does anyone know how to make a descent sturdy bookmark in 32 count without using one of those precut ones?Bookmarks

Hey all I have a question about stitching bookmarks. I have a design in mind that I would like to make into a bookmark for someone. I have seen the precut bordered stitchable bookmarks at joanns and online but I would like to know, do they make them in 32 count? because I haven't been able to find a count on them online. The design I want is actually rather large but if I stitch it over one on 32 count it comes out to 2"x7". If bookmarks don't come in 32 count, does anyone know how to make a descent sturdy bookmark in 32 count without using one of those precut ones?

Re: Bookmarks
Using fusible interfacing when done does help to stiffen it up some. I'm working on figuring out a plan for how I want to join the two sides of my current bookmark together so that the hem isn't thick with folded under edges. 
I'll be looking forward to other people's answers as well.

Re: Bookmarks
I've finished a few by just sewing fabric to the back. They didn't end up too thick even with the folded under edges. That way I could use whatever type of fabric I wanted to stitch on.

Re: Bookmarks
For my book markers, I used perforated paper, on some I whipped stitched the edges, others I put a decorative lace around the edges. I have one left that I had done a few years ago for a National Guard turkey shoot/craft fair.
Next weekend is my b/d, and youngest finally has my website made up, and she and our 2 oldest daughters are having a luncheon for me and she is going to show me the ropes of the website, and I will hopefully have pics. posted after that.
HAPPY STITCHING IN STITCHING LAND.
