Not sure if you remember the phase I went through of making magnetic bookmarks? Anyway, I did and loved making them before BC3 came up with a better idea - the Wrap It, Flip It and Mark It bookmarks which are impossible to lose.
So, when making those bookmarks I enclosed a magnet with a tatted edge which covered over and lay on each side. I've put a picture on here using a curtain ring to show how it sits.
Anyway, to get to the point - I decided that this idea needed sharing so that others may use it. I wasn't quite sure whether to call it a technique or a pattern but in the end decided that it was really a technique as it can be easily adapted to whatever the user requires. Here's the link.
Thanks. Could be useful.
ReplyDeleteIs this how you made the magnetic brooches too, a couple of years ago? - I have two, but lost one of the magnets. Might try to replace it.
ReplyDeleteYes, Maureen but I did smaller enclosures. Think I used 6 split rings on those. Easily adjustable, though.
ReplyDeleteI can see where this has many possibilities, have to let it simmer on my brain for a bit :)
