    the scarf is creative and clever! what are some of the other ways that you use selvages. I was saving them but they are soooo narrow. Occasionally I'll use the title of the selvage to use on a fabric postcard, but other than that have not used them ... please do tell.

    Endless possibilities!! I sew onto a foundation fabric(calico mostly) either straight or on the diagonal. Basically making a piece of fabric to use whichever way I wish! Here is a bit bag, and my quilt which is an ongoing project!!

    This is way cool! Another project I'll have to work towards. I don't save selvage until now! I think we need a tutorial on this one!
    peace
