Edda's Selvage Totes


Edda of Kalamazoo, MI made these stunning tote bags, her first two selvage projects. She says they are great conversation starters. Her friends are saving selvages for Edda now.
In the top photo, you can see one red selvage among all the light strips. Isn't that great? Then the basketweave-style bag has lots of color. Nice job, Edda!

    Edda has also done a beautiful job with my Selvedge Tote (top photo). The pattern for this tote is available from my website:
