I decided to use the narrow ones to make a tissue holder like the one seen here on my friend Susan's blog. I had to sew them very carefully onto a foundation (I used a used dryer sheet) to make sure I caught all the edges. This is the result.

More Selvage Fun
A good number of my fellow guild members have been giving me their selvages over the last several months. I've used a lot of them in previous projects, but sometimes some of them are very, very narrow, like the one you see here.

Gee Anya, I don't know where you get the patience to do this...really cute stuff.
ReplyDeleteI have my selvages in a bag and just can't get going on them.
Inspirations are great...
Great idea! and very handy too!
ReplyDeleteAnya, love your idea. I have some selvages that are very narrow too, so this would be a great way to use them up :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat way to use the very narrow selvages Anya! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteA perfect little project for using selvages, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAwwwww very sweet, Anya you are very talented, thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteBy the way I visited your favorite Montoursville Quilt Shop today, things were hoping at OGP! Mickey needed fabrics for the next commissioned baby quilt :>)! We love the fabrics in that shop!
