Thank you! I wondered how to make these myself. I’ve tryed before, but without the pen and could never get a perfect circle. I’m definitely going to try it your way! :)
thank you for the comment, I was beginning to wonder if anyone found this tutorial useful!
I would love to see the stitch markers that you make :)
