    Default IMHO best free gift ever!

    My DH just surprised me with a new subscription to American Quilters Society and in with the membership card was a free bookmark. But not just any paper bookmark. This one is one of the smartest little inventions I can remember in a long time.

    You fold it over the page you want to mark and the back has a magnet that holds the bookmark in place.

    I just love this simple ingenuity!

    I am one lucky girl.
    peace

    I bought myself one of those bookmarks last week when DH and I stopped at the Virginia Quilt Museum in Harrisonburg, VA. They had so much neat stuff in their gift shop but I had plans for my vacation money. LOL!

    Love those neat little inventions. My neighbor used to make bookmarks with magnets in them.

    Ah, but I don't even know which room to look in.

    One of my quilt magazines had a pattern on how to make them. All you needed was a fridge magnet (the kind you get with a business card on the front) and a bit of fabric. Congratulations on your nice gift!
