Selvedges Feet
Another selvedge project completed this year has been my selvedges feet. I saw a pic online, drew up my own pattern and used selvedges sewn in sections to complete each foot. Then each foot was quilted and I added binding. They measure approx 30” x 60”. Sew much fun to do.
I am going to make another set with fabric scraps.

So fun!
I was collecting selvages but gave them to a friend who wanted them when I was trying to clean things out. A couple of times since, I've had some nice ones that made me regret that choice, but I moved on. Then, yesterday, I was cutting one from fabric for pillowcases for grandchildren. It's MERMAIDS, is wide, and SO adorable... I kept it. We'll see how I feel about it in a week. I do not need one more thing hanging around, lol. I also cut selvage from 10 yards of fabric for a backing I was making. Batik, so a nice, tight weave. I kept thinking how nice it would work for tying things. I even looked at it in the waste basket again this morning! Good grief. I have a problem...
