Your bookmark should be getting there about by. It is a very different kind of bookmark. I had a blast making it. Hope you like it. I put it into a book to show you how it works.
Am looking forward to yours ariving soon. Hugs, Lani[quote][i

I'm glad you liked your bookmark, Debbie. I loved the one you made me as well and to include a good book to read with it was genius! I can't wait to start it. It's been sitting on my kitchen counter calling my name since yesterday afternoon, but I have to restrain myself as I just have too much to get done this week LOL!

Siobhan, thank you so much for my beautiful bookmark, so much love and care went into and it was appreciated. With 3 young boys I know finding the time proved difficult. I will treasure the bookmark always and will always remember you. I hope we will be able to keep in touch, we can never have too many farmgirl sisters to write to.

Hugs and Blessings,
Debbie

TJ--I am so glad you liked it! (and that it made it there safely) The post office was fixin' to get a piece of my mind if it didn't get there by today. O:)
I have to make a confession--I liked that pattern so much, that I am making myself one too. ;) Only I think I'm going to do a green barn and a gray pony...maybe hehe

Jessie - I received my bookmark in last night's mail!! What a cute little horse leaning over a barn door! AND a Mary Jane's Farmgirl bumper sticker, AND a cool card! I'm afraid my presentation wasn't up to par!! (grin)

Thanks so much, I'm looking forward to using this cute bookmark!! ~TJ

Hi Pam-
Your bookmarks have arrived, and they are so beautiful!
A machine embroidered purple lace, looks like a bird in the clouds with a leaf,
very pretty. And the other one looks like layers of hand made paper with a
design in two toned string and some nice leaves. How did you do the leaves?
Thank you so much, Pam, they are little works of art!

My bookmark arrived yesterday, August 3, and it is beautiful! Thank you, Deborah! It is an origami kimono like the picture posted by njaw09 (Annie), but mine is blue. I will try to post a picture of it. Thank you, again!

Jessie - I'm so thrilled you got the bookmark and liked it!! That style stitching is called Chicken Scratch, or Depression Lace, or Hoover Lace, or Gingham Cross Stitch... I kinda like Chicken Scratch! Ladies started doing it during the Depression as a way to pretty-up their gingham aprons, kitchen towels, etc - when that was the only fabric around, they were still doing what they could to make their worlds beautiful! What an inspiration.

Anyway thanks a bunch! I'm peering down the street waiting for our mailman, as you told me you sent mine the same day!! woohoo!! ~TJ

Thank you debtea2-
I receive the bookmark. I love it. It reminds me of kimono. I love it so much that I want to frame it but it will be shame to hide it.
