Well, I made another bookmark from Robin's bookmarks collection. |
I decided to make an edging only altering one of the pattern slightly.
I have made the edging with a size 20 thread and I am almost half way around.
|
Wanting to accommodate the baby buttons that matched with the color and the hankie that Margaret sent to me as a gift a while back!

Love the edging incorporating the little buttons! Bookmark looks good too. Amazing how quickly roots grow.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I love plants but only been able to work with herbs because they are weeds. :)

Thanks 🦋
DeleteLove that bookmark! And the hankie-wow!
ReplyDeleteYes I dont remember where she said she got it but it is thick and nice💙
DeleteAh, I’d wondered if these patterns could easily be made into edgings. Very interesting addition of buttons, I haven’t seen that on an edging before.
ReplyDeleteThankyou, I haven't either maybe I am the first😁
DeleteLovely edging, little buttons are very nice!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I had fun found them on ebay too😃
DeleteI always wonder whether beads (& buttons) on a hanky edging won't hamper it's usage? It looks very good, though! Nice adaptation :-)
ReplyDeleteI used to propagate mint similarly, though the leaves we have here are very different from your variety. I would choose stems that were a dark violet/magenta (mature stems). Being able to pluck off fresh leaves from one's own 'garden' is indeed minty ;-P
That is very interesting I do have a spearmint and the leaves are furry like and they say not to plant them close together so the dont cross-pollenate.
DeleteLovely bookmark, I have just finished another bookmark and I was looking at and thinking it might make a nice edging.
ReplyDeleteThat’s a beautiful edging, I like the use of the buttons not sure if it’s practically when using it. You matched the colour on my hanky beautifully
Now days hankies are just decorations in blue Jean back pockets if that. I'm okay with it😃
ReplyDeleteLovely bookmark! The baby buttons really add an interesting design element to your hanky! I love fresh mint, and peppermint is my favorite. I've not had luck keeping it alive. I have an idea that when Dave weeds the garden he forgets about my mint and pulls it out.
ReplyDeleteI completely understand that lol😃
DeleteWow Carollyn, this bookmark it's my prefer! I like the color and the pattern too.
ReplyDeleteI like so much the edging with the baby buttons too, these are too lovely
Thanks, Robin seems to always have such nice ideas. ❤
