August Fully Finished Gallery

 So...I'll have to start this post with a confession: I didn't quite meet my self-imposed quota (of two finished objects per month, that I promised to Rachel in January) this month. I even bought a frame for the 2019 Temperature SAL a couple weeks ago, but Felix has been busy and just hasn't gotten around to framing it, and so I decided rather than pestering him to get it done before the cut-off date for the SAL, I'd just bite the bullet and promise three finishes for September. Let's see how that will work out!

So I only have one meager finish to show, and that is one you already saw - the Bookmark of the Month. I decided against adding felt to the back - the plastic is stury enough, the backside rather clean, and I wanted to preserve the transparent look around the edges and not bulk it up. So it looks just the same as last time, but I love the look so I don't mind sharing it again!

So that's a short post for today; next month I hope to have the next bookmark, the Temperature SAL, and one more as of yet undecided finish to show :)

I like this one! Will you show all the bookmarks together at some point?

The bookmark does look good, I like the little holes, something a bit different for cross stitch.

I've hopped over from the Fully Finished Gallery. Lovely stitching on your bookmark - great colors!

There are some months I don't reach my self-imposed quota either, but one FFO is still better than none! Thanks for taking part! :)
