9.17.11 ... recycled postcard bookmarks

i received this postcard in 1999 from a dear friend who was in paris.

it's been on the brink of becoming something new many, many times since then.

but today it happened.

now the joy it has brought to me will be spread to others.

i love both of the yarn/threads used for these tails. i hope they last a long time. i have no idea when i will stumble upon two more like these.

sweet dreams, everyone. thanks for stopping by. until tomorrow. happiness to you. from me. with heart. ox joon

7.22.11 ... recycled map bookmark

i made this as an extra for a buyer who lives in connecticut. i placed a heart on her town. i made this using a vintage map, my sewing machine and string and yarns from my collection.

here's the reverse.

i really like the yarn and string combination.

i hope you all are headed into a beautiful weekend. stay cool and safe. 

sweet dreams, everyone. thanks for stopping by. until tomorrow. happiness to you. from me. with heart. ox joon
