Meet Maria Clara from Spain

Maria Clara from Spain made these selvage pin cushions. Aren't they nice? She used a tight little zig-zag stitch to secure the selvages, a good idea! I like that. Take a look at her blog:

Greetings and hugs to our visitors from Spain today!

Oh, I love these -
Have you ever seen a needle book done with selvages? I think I need to buy your book.

These are cute...thanks for continuing to show us fun projects with selvages. I haven't gotten another selvage project done yet, but since I made my bag I have people giving them to me, so am amassing a nice collection!

Love it! Love the zig zag stitch- I am working on selvages placemats now and I will try using a zig zag stitch!

Those are adorable and I like the little zigzag a lot! It adds even more interest.

Yes, thanks for sharing all these great projects with us, it's so fun to see what everyone is making.

These are really quite lovely. I love that she used a satin stitch on the selvages.........it just ads that little extra "touch"
