I have made these for a few years now and sell at my local Farmer's Market in Upstate NY, USA. I sell mine for $2 each. This year at my annual Catholic Women's Retreat, I brought the Retreat House 70 of these to use as take away gifts. They were happy to get them. I also make mine from 4" squares and batch sew them, as well. Thanks for sharing this!
I was looking through my pile of offcuts only yesterday thinking I’d need to patch them into a larger piece. But now I’ll make a few bookmarks thanks to you.
Thanks. I received one of these as a gift from a friend, and have since made my own as gifts. I need a few of my own for my cook books. Thanks, again. Kathleen in Canada.
If you make cork or other raw edge fabric projects, these are great scrap busters. No turning necessary. Just cut your shape and stitch. Heart shaped is my favorite.
Good day Christine,you must be a mind reader,yesterday I pulled out my large bag of fabric scraps and was going to throw them away,had made a few of your tissue covers. This project will be awesome to use up my scrap fabric,thank you so much,clever idea.
Thank you Christine for another great tutorial 🌺 I have not been sewing for too long. My daughter has been asking me to make her a box pouch type lunch bag with the zip around the top half. Do you think you would be able to make a video showing us how to make one of these? It’s so lovely to watch someone normal that I can relate to! Thank you again 🌺🌺
Thanks Christine these are a great little project. I made these and made the inner square white and wrote a little message with a pigma pen on the bottom . Fantastic 😊
Thank you for the quick project. This is what I consider to be a palette cleanser between other projects. That quick and easy feeling of accomplishment prevents burnout. Side note, minimum wage is $27?!? In the US it's still $7.25. Absolutely SHAMEFUL! Even with the conversion rate, it's pitiful.
Love the video ... I love scraps too so have plenty to play woth .... BUT your calc. went a little wrong ... should be 4.50 each - don't sell yourself short
I tried making some like this, but I need to work on my top stitching. It was soo crooked lol I was also trying to use up some acrylic felt I had sitting around to make them stiff

I'm sure the Women's Retreat would have loved them Helen😀
Great item to bundle with a book tote and upsell as a gift package
That's a great idea Bergen😀
They are great and won’t fall out losing your place. Especially for a student or editor, journalist, research etc.
They'll make a great stocking stuffer too😀

I was doing the same Duncan. The scrap pile can be a little overwhelming sometimes😀

You can never have enough of these Kathleen😁

I've never tried cork Cherie, but look forward to trying it out some day😀
Careful! It’s addictive!😂
Love these..Christmas extras!! Yay!!🎉
These are perfect stocking fillers Carol. Better get cracking. It's not so far away now😁
Thanks Christine. Great tutorial and enjoyable to watch.
Thanks so much Janice😀
That is such a cool idea. Thank you for sharing. 😊
You are so welcome Anita. Thank you😁
I sew to sell and donate. I will be making these. Thank you. Love them
I hope they do really well for you Mary😁
I have a lot of small muslin pieces and a heat press. I think I will do a bunch for the family, personalized with their names on for them as gifts.
That sounds like a fabulous idea😀

It's funny Eve, I pulled my scraps out as well. Then promptly put them all back😀
Thanks Christine great use of scraps like you I do get a lot of them
Thanks Pamela. I think my scrap bin is competing with my fabric stash😀

Ahh, this is on my to do list Tina. It's one I'm lacking confidence in, but really need to knuckle down and work it out😀
These are so cute! Going to make them for the oldies.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️
I'm sure they'll love them Debbie😀
Thanks Christine these are a great little project. I made these and made the inner square white and wrote a little message with a pigma pen on the bottom . Fantastic 😊
What a lovely idea Janet. Thank you for sharing😀
As always a great video. It’s so interesting how you work out your costing. Thank you for taking the time to share.
Thanks Debra😁
Thanks Christine, I know a lot of readers.
And you'll make them all very happy too😁
Thank you for the quick project. This is what I consider to be a palette cleanser between other projects. That quick and easy feeling of accomplishment prevents burnout.
Side note, minimum wage is $27?!? In the US it's still $7.25. Absolutely SHAMEFUL! Even with the conversion rate, it's pitiful.
Your $7.25 is worth $10.96 here, the minimum wage here is $23.23 for people 21 and over, under 21 it's $15.23. Still a sizable difference.
"Palette cleanser". I do like that term Bonnie. It is a shame about the wages. It's so difficult for everyone now😀
Thank you Christian I made some today, easy peasy!!!
That's awesome Mary😁
Such a good idea!
Glad you think so Jennifer. Thank you😁
I've made some. I did embroidery an initial on a couple of them before I stitched them together.
That's a wonderful idea Nita. Thanks for sharing😀
❤
Thanks Sheila😀

Oh wow, how did I miss that! Back to school for me. Thanks Adrienne. 😀
You did these a few years ago, didn't you? It's where I learned they were a thing
I did Sharon, though slightly different. This version is much quicker.
Good memory 😀
Bite your tongue. You are a "Fabric Resource Coordinator" Thanks for sharing
Edit. It would help if I could spell
Haha, I do like that title Cynthia😀
I tried making some like this, but I need to work on my top stitching. It was soo crooked lol

Your top stitching will get better with practice Suzy. Trick is to watch where you're going, not watching the needle😁
