    That's pretty funny. But it takes all of the fun out of finding "neat" looking selvedges!

    (Not that I save mine; mine are all cut into tiny bits for the most part.)

    I think that's fabulous. It's a look people like, but they may not have the ability to collect tons of selvages on their own. (Or the interest in sewing them all together.)

    Great thinking Timeless Treasures!

    Not really my thing but I've seen some cute things made with selvedges. I actually didn't realize it was a piece of fabric at first. If people will buy it, companies will make it.

    I found it on fabric.com; may be at other sites as well.

    I agree. They saw a market and jumped on it. Does anybody recognize any fabric from the selvage???

    I love it!

    I actually have a whole Walmart-sized bag stuffed FULL of selvages, waiting on another project. The bag is so full that they keep spilling out into the floor! LOL!

    *awesome*

    I've had a crazy day... so thanks for looking that up!

    So this must be a new run of the stuff... Some company had something like this out before - maybe 2 years ago.

    Glad to see this... I'll be getting some! (For when I'm too lazy to make the real McCoy!)
