How to Make a Pumpkin Bookmark for Fall

Materials

Free Fall Bookmark Pattern
Small pieces of felt (I used white, brown, orange, green and yellow)
Matching threads
Pencil or erasable fabric marker
Needle

Instructions

Step 1

Trace and cut out the bookmark pattern from the felt fabrics.

Step 2

Put the small pumpkin stem and vine pieces near the pointy end of one of the bookmark bases. This will be the front of the corner bookmark.

Step 3

The pumpkin pattern comes in three parts, which are three oval shapes.

Place the middle part of the pumpkin slightly covering the bottom sides of the stem and vine. Bring the end of the vine to rest on top of the pumpkin piece.

Step 4

Using a matching thread for the pumpkin felt, stitch the top part of the pumpkin shape to the bookmark base, making sure to stitch the pumpkin, stem, and vine together, as well.

Step 5

Place the 2 other pumpkin parts underneath the middle pumpkin piece on either side, with the middle piece slightly overlapping the side pieces.

Step 6

Using a needle and thread, hand stitch around the middle piece of the pumpkin, making sure to sew through the pumpkin layers and the bookmark base.

Step 7

Sew the small leaf pattern on the side of the pumpkin across from the vine. You will only need a few stitches using a matching shade of thread.

I added a small x-shaped stitch on the end of the vine to hold it down to the pumpkin.

Step 8

Put the second leaf underneath the pumpkin base in the corner, tucking the leaf underneath the edge of the pumpkin.

The small dots will be placed underneath the pumpkin along the base of the bookmark corner.

Sew the leaf to the base with a matching thread color. Then, using a small x-shaped stitch, attach the small circles to the bookmark corner.

Step 9

Place the pumpkin bookmark pattern on the top of the plain one.

Stitch the straight edges of the bookmark corner together using a matching thread that matches the color of the front piece. Do not stitch the rounded edge. Finish off with a knot to secure.

Place the bookmark on the corner of the book page where you want to save a place in the book.
