I made my first cushion using selvedges and I have to say it was so much fun and how practical it is to use these wonderful strips. So now that I am absolutely hooked and I have to enter your wonderful giveaway.
Oh, pick me, pick me, please. I love to win!
I made my first selvage project about a month ago.....and I'm back into the collecting phase again. Thank you for hosting the giveaway.

How exciting for the winner!
I'm off to check out Laura's shop. Thanks for the link. Yippee...selvedges!
Yes, I would really get going on my selvage project if I won a bag of selvages! Love all the things you find for us!
I have such a small amt of selvages right now, I could use a bag full....
I love the look of salvage projects. I aim to make something sometime, but right now I'm moving stuff out of the sewing room so I can paint it. Everything that goes back in will be organized and pretty....I promise!
Firstly, your blog is brilliant! I am so pleased that I came across it. It is awesome to see what people are doing with their selvages. Secondly, it would be great to win some selvages!
ooh giveaway! I'd love the opportunity to get my hands on some selvages to try out some of the wonderful ideas on your blog!

Just found your site yesterday and I am loving this selvage idea. I am starting to save my selvages now! I always felt bad throwing them away.
That is so cool! I have been wanting to try making something with selvages! I love watching your blog and seeing all the neat selvage items!
WooHoo!! Fabulous! I haven't made anything with selvages yet, since I have not been saving them, but now I could win some and at least know where to buy some too!
She probably sold out of the selvage bags instantly, so I'll post and hope I win one!
This would be a great way for me to try a selvage project!
I justed started to collect selvages, inspired by your blog. This would be a great way to get some. If I don't win, I know know where to buy them. Thanks for the links!!
I stumbled upon your blog a few weeks ago and just started collecting selvages. It's been fun to imagine what I might make.

I am so tempted to use selvage in a postcard - maybe next trade I participate in
Sharon in Montreal

Karen, you have unleashed a monster with this selvage idea.....It is incredible what others are doing with selvages. I am so inspired.
Thank you,
Chris (Fingers, toes arms and legs all crossed)
I recently started to collect my selvages so I would love to win the prize to heft up my selvage stash!
Thanks for sponsoring this give away.
I just love the idea and have been collecting selvages from all my fabrics, even the small bits that I had cut long ago. Knowing that I can now order them is a big plus...thanks for the info!

Linda
To think I am desperate to win these selvages, and I used to just throw them away.
What a great giveaway...ohhhh how I would love to win this one!
Awesome! I have several selvage projects in mind but not enough selvages (yet) to make them!
Dodi
Good Morning - Please enter me in the drawing for the selvages - how cool would that be to win! I really enjoy reading your blog & love the fact that you update it so often...thanks for taking the time to do that for us :)
Smiles, DianeM
Oh wow! I've been itching to get ahold of some selvages!
What a great giveaway! Thanks!
I've yet to start my first selvage project but I keep tossing them in my box...
I've become addicted to selvedges.... I try and plan my projects , but they always find a way to 'just develope' into something bigger than I started. I would love to win the selvedges! It would be a great birthday present, since my 55th birthday will be Friday...(and I'm finally letting my gray hair show!)
Great giveaway!!! I have been collecting selvedges for a while, but haven't done anything with it yet. I can't wait to start.
I would love to win those selvages! I just started saving them after seeing how wonderful they look all together! Thanks for the chance to win!
Oooooh what fun! Please toss my name in the pot!
SO many fabulous ideas, so little time!! LOL I have yet to start my first selvege project but have been diligently saving. A free bag would certainly help!! Thanks!
Thank you very much for giving a place to order them... i need more!
What a fun giveaway. I just started saving the Selvages.
Janie
I would love some selvages - count me in!

How Cool!!!!
This is a very cool give-away! Cheers everyone!
Oooh, I'd love to make a selvage quilt.
My friends think I'm nuts but I've noticed they are not offering me any of their selvages. They must be hooked too! It's really nice of Laura Sampsel to offer this giveaway. I would love to win!
Wish I could win. I never win anything.
How exciting...a selvage give-away!!
i have only been sewing a short time, i would love some selvages! please put my name in the "hat"!
Good Grief....ya better add my name cuz I only have one salvage and I'm posting a pix on my blog tomorrow. Just one...lonely little salvage. I certainly could use some to catch up to those other gals!!!

Eeee! Free selvages!!!
I haven't made a selvage project yet but I've found so many great ideas on this blog! So fun that it's now possible to buy just the selvages in case you haven't been keeping them!
I'd love to win the free selvages!
I'm not in time for the free give-away but very happy to have found your blog through another blog link. I had no idea that so much could be done with selvages. I've kept many of mine thinking that there must be something I can do with them. Now I know! Thank you!
Maria
I notice that your posts are from several years ago and I hope you are still selling ! I want some selvages. I saw a picture about a year ago of a lady with a button up shirt made from fabric made from selvages sewn to white fabric. Please contact me at
cgatarnes@hughes.net and let me know how much you want for selvages. If you still have them in gallon Ziplock bags that would be super !!
Thanks,
