Cross Stitch Bookmark Finishing Tutorial

August 12, 2023March 9, 2024 Siri0Tagged Cross stitch, Tutorial

Why Cross Stitch a Bookmark? You can make bookmarks in a ton of different ways, as we’ll discuss shortly. So why then cross stitch a bookmark? Are cardboard ones not good enough? Of course they are.
