So, I am participating in a bookmark swapping event where in we
would be swapping our bookmarks with each other. I registered for it but had no
idea what to make and how. All I could remember is
Lin’s quilled teddy bear bookmarks. I love those bookmarks. I have seen many
other bookmarks. And personally I have a huge collection of bookmarks that
range from printed paper book marks to metal bookmarks. I love them. Whenever I
purchase books I make sure the shopkeeper gives me a good amount of bookmarks
and that too whatever designs he has.
Now, when it comes to quilled bookmark I
always wonder how the quilled designs sustain under the pressure of the papers
and the books – don’t they look odd with some pages bulging. Well, that made me
to look out for ideas. Initially I thought I would go for a twist with the
origami version of the bookmarks. However, I wanted a version where I can
implement Lin’s punched bookmark ideas. And thus I came up with my version of
bookmark – GG's Signature Bookmark.
Before I prepared these 23 bookmarks, I had experimented with a different design. Here's how the bookmark looks in a book:
Here's how the bookmark looks that I made for the swap:
