Take a look at this beautiful selvage bag made by Stephanie from Ohio. See the tape measure fabric at the top? And I like the polka dots too. Her selvage strips are so narrow, she fits a lot of selvage action in a small space! And she found a selvage with her name on it too (see below).
Stephanie found these antique bobbins and added the vintage rick-rack. I think they look great. I have some old wooden spools that I plan to wrap with selvage strips. Inspirational decorations for the quilt studio!
Visit Stephanie's blog at: http://loftcreations.blogspot.com/ She has a nice long list of favorite blogs there too.Don't you love September? I get that "new box of crayons" feeling. I hope you get to savor some wonderful moments this month.
Love the idea of wrapping your selvedges on the bobbins. I LOVE Fall and just thrilled it's already September. Thank you for sharing my project.

ReplyDeleteFall is my favorite time of year and I love the way nature paints the leaves. And I am a fan of selvages, I love the bag, too! Great job! Also, those bobbins add such character to your shelf.
