bookmark again -nuntium trecesimum octavum

Here is another bookmark with the same Diamond Braid pattern in a wonderful Lizbeth color, Falling Leaves.

This is again from Robin's book, available here. 

Jane asked if I did well at the fair- I did!  Hugely well!  I think I sold more bookmarks than anything else but the snowflakes were a close second.  This was the fifth year at this fair and I had many repeat customers.  It was interesting because of a snafu, we ended up in a different room.  I had a number of people expressing great relief that they'd found me and that I'd still come.  I have to admit it was quite flattering and a wonderful boost to the ego.  All in all, a great sale for me.  (Not so much for my daughter or sister though- who knows why?)

bookmark - nuntium trecesimum septimum

I recently got an email from a craft fair customer asking if I would have bookmarks at the early November show.  I made four (as asked) and no one asked for them.  I did sell some though.

Here's one from Robin Perfetti's book:

I really do love Robin's patterns and this is no exception.  I found it pleasing to make and it's called Diamond Braid.  Despite my husband's claim of this being the ugliest variegated thread (Lizbeth Jewel), it sold first!

I am delighted that people still read books with actual paper pages.
