DON’T THROW THOSE TEENY TINY SCRAPS AWAY! There are actually lots of things you can do with them. This story is about just one way: turn them into a scrap fabric bookmark!
The ones I made this first time around were smaller, but the one’s I made more recently, I cut to 3" wide, and the height was the width of the stabaliser.
Ideally, you don’t want to leave little gaps of stabiliser peeking through, so you do need to layer it enough so you don’t have big holes in your bookmark!
To use this method, you want to sandwich your ribbon scrap—if you are using one—in between two layers of stabiliser and stitch together on 3 sides, leaving the long side open.
