Multicolored Beginner's Bookmark
The multicolored thread really makes this a fun item. We tried a number of ribbons from Grandma's extensive collection, but the white worked best, making all the colors pop out brightly.

On the hankie edging front, I stopped when I thought I was a few rings short of having enough to finish. I expected to have Susan stitch the edging to the handkerchief until she got close to the starting point, and then I could see exactly how many more rings to make. But when I checked with Susan, she was afraid I had made too much!

Grandma's (and my) Handkerchief Edging |
Susan says when she stitches the edging down, she will try to space the rings the same as Grandma's, so we will see how much the edging stretches around the hankie.
