There will be a glimpse of a new bookmark in this Work In Progress Wednesday report.
Bookmarks
I stitched a new bookmark with a floral motif, but I will only show you a limited picture for now. Come October, and you can see all.
After completing it, I stretched it under a damp cloth, and arranged a fringe on the top and the bottom. The reverse is covered with a piece of green felt.
I finished the other bookmark, which I completed the stitching on earlier, if you remember,
in the same way. It is neatly stretched and has a fringe and felt back. The motif will be revealed next week.
Mandala
The last but one section of the garland is in place.
Next week, I will put in the final section and start experimenting with some yellow stitching or beading.
The yellow in the garland needs to be balanced somewhere inside the Mandala, I think.
Hexablooms
I have stitched what I think will be the width of the wallhanging. I still need to join some seams before I can test-hang the whole upper part of the tapestry and check if it really does fit the designated area it will be hung in. If it does, I will then proceed by working downward.
Here I have laid out the blocks on the floor.

The hexagon color change looks great! I think your bookmarks will make people read more, so they can enjoy your gifts.
That is going to be one epic wallhanging!
Look at those amazing hexablooms, they look great even unfinished!
Good progress too on your other projects, you do take a lot of careful planning time and that always makes good results.
