I just did up these two book markers. Looking to make quick little token gifts for my students for the holidays.
Now I would like to write up the pattern and make it available to everyone. But my question is which one should I write up? I think I like the one on the left best. But am curious what you all think. So is it the left one or the right one that you like best? Or maybe you don't like either?

They're both very nice (I :manyheart butterflies!) but I think the one on the left is more practical...the right one looks a little bulky for a book, IMO.

They're both beautiful! But I agree with you, I like the one on the left. The simplicity really shows off the butterfly, which is gorgeous!

I love the one on the left too - the butterfly is much more visible with the smaller tail - Great job as always, Kathy!

They are both beautiful but I like the one on the left better. The 'stem' of the right one seems to take away from the butterfly on top too much. The stem on the left one makes you see the butterfly easier. Plus I don't think boys would care for the scallops on the right one. JMHO

They are both lovely! Though I agree with the above that the one on the left makes the butterfly stand out more. :)

Well I got the pattern written for the one on the left,
I am going to play around tonight when I am through work with adding a few beads, So the pattern may have an option of beads or no beads. But that has to wait while I go to work.

I like the left one also...I think the one on the right wouldn't fit in a book as well. A little thick.

Agreed, the left one--shows off the butterfly more. But I like the shaft of the one on the right, so pop another topper on it, a little bigger to compensate for the larger shaft, and post that pattern, too! Good job! You creative people make me so envious! Patty

They're both great, and I love butterflies!!!! I think the left one would work best for a bookmark :)

Actually, I think the butterfly itself, without the tail, would make a nice applique. I think I'll try that. http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies/animal/animal0083.gif
