creative with miscellaneous style ⬠ Lucy Brennan
I've used mine in various projects, notebook covers, lampshade, fabric bucket, but I still have a bag full of them (and keep adding to it). It would be wrong to throw them away, they are a special sort of scrap! Looking forward to seeing what you are inspired to do!
ReplyDeletevera from negligent style has been doing fun things with hers, as has Judith from just jude. I'll have to start keeping mine, more stuff to hoard
ReplyDeleteI too have been collecting mine for a project that as yet I have no idea 😀 @lefthandednotions.com
ReplyDeletewith you there!
ReplyDeleteQuilts of a Feather blog - http://www.quiltsofafeather.com/2015/07/selvage-along-link-up-selvages.html - is having a 'Selvage Along' until September and there will be lots of tutorials posted on projects to use up your selvedges. I am an avid collector of selvedges and have linked by blog Between Stitches as I will be sharing my quilts/wallhangings along the way.
ReplyDeleteI'll leave that project to you Lucy! I don't need another list of projects on my 'one day' list! Look forward to seeing what you decide to make!
ReplyDeleteHi Lucy! You have really cute selvages! I'm happy that Jess made this 'selvage along' even I don't have time to sew now anything. I try to post soon about my selvages and little projects I have already made. Can't wait to see new ideas for these treasure-pieces. x Teje
ReplyDeleteI need to start collecting these. Sew pretty!
ReplyDeleteI like memmens description above of selvages as a "special sort of scrap." Haven't done much with mine yet but have a Pinterest board with lots of ideas. Get that bigger box and inspiration will eventually strike! :-)
ReplyDeleteA 'selvedge along' is just starting over at Quilty Habit. I have a bulging container of selvedges too, so I'm interested to see the projects suggested for using selvedges in the Selvedge Along.
ReplyDeleteYou are about to bust that box!! LOL You better find a good project soon. I like that idea of a Selvage Along that Jeneta has mentioned. Let's go check it out.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute box to store them in! And it has a way of telling you when it's time to make something, haha. LOVE the ladybug selvage!
ReplyDeleteNo matter how many of my selvedges I use my collection never gets smaller, I wonder how that happens?!!! I make fabric with them and matchstick quilt it then use it as I would normal fabric, it's so strong and particularly great for pouches and bags. Love your tin Lucy - Chris :D
