These bookends look like they just came from Grandmother's attic.  They are so beautiful in person.  Notice the Shepherd's staff bookmark and fob. 

This is a second in a "hopefully" three part series of The Attic Collection designs.  I just fell in love with this design and these colors.  There are only three colors used in this design so it would be very easy to switch them to suit your color choice. 

The decorative fabric for these bookends is the most beautiful suede.  Suede is a little tougher to get your needle through but it is well worth the extra effort.  You will certainly need a sharp curved needle so make sure your curved needle is not a tapestry needle when finishing these beauties.
