Selvage Cover for a Kindle

Talented selvage enthusiast Jill Bunis of New Jersey has a new Kindle so of course she's been making selvage covers. Aren't they wonderful? Look at those fabrics. I love that zipper fabric. Visit her blog Cre8fmomquilts to see her son Matthew's artwork too. What a creative family.

I hope you all have a wonderful new year!

If I Only had a Brain - Hat

When my buddy Jill Bunis in New Jersey saw the Beard Hat post here a few days ago, she said "I see your beard hat, and raise it..." Is this hilarious, or what! :) Does anybody else think it should be gray? Or maybe I'm being too literal.

This hat was designed by Flint Knits. The pattern appears in the Sept/Oct issue of Crochet Today magazine. (This link goes to a pattern preview. The actual pattern appears only in the magazine.)

Selvage Lingerie?

This interesting bit of selvage lingerie is for sale on Etsy by clubaloha. She calls it Bridal Style Women's Thong, Selvage Strip Lingerie Panty. Just shows you how boundless quilters' creativity is! These sell for $10.

Thanks to Jill Bunis of New Jersey for sending me this link. Jill has an impressive list of selvage accomplishments: selvage sofa, selvage chair, selvage cornices!... You've seen lots of her creations here.

Great Idea for Quilt-Giving

Jill Bunis of New Jersey made this pretty quilt for her cousin's daughter Sophie. I love how she tied a ribbon around this quilt. What a beautiful presentation! Isn't that elegant?

I'm going to remember to do this the next time I give someone a quilt.

Selvage Sofa in New Jersey!

Yes, this is Jill Bunis' yellow Selvage Room in New Jersey! That's what I call it anyway. She recently made these two big selvage cushions to add to the day bed that already had her selvage quilt on it. You can see more of this room on her blog: http://www.cre8fmomquilts.blogspot.com/ including the window cornices done, of course, in selvages. The b/w fabric is Mark Lipinski's Califon line. Nice job, Jill!

I like the way Jill features bits of her prints, especially the fortune cookies and the rows of geometric patterns. See the button print below (at the bottom of the photo).

Jill's New Selvage Tote

Jill Bunis from New Jersey (Cre8fmomquilts) is the maker of the selvage cornices, the upholstered club chair, and more. Now she's whipped up a tote bag to bring to the quilt show in Lancaster, PA. I like the wide color stripes in this bag. You can see in-progress photos on her blog: http://www.cre8fmomquilts.blogspot.com/. Nice job, Jill!

In today's post Jill tells about meeting fellow selvage quilters at the show as a result of carrying her new tote!

Jill's New Selvage Chair!

WOW! Jill from New Jersey just finished her selvage chair! Isn't this amazing? She put it in the same room with the selvage cornices. Jill has some excellent photos showing how she upholstered this chair. See her blog at: http://www.cre8fmomquilts.blogspot.com/. She's giving away selvages today to celebrate finishing the chair and help others get started.
Great job, Jill!

Happy St. Patty's Day! I hope you're wearin' the green.
Or having a wee mug of green beer!

Jill's New Selvage Cornices

Remember we were trying to guess what Jill was up to when she showed us her selvage project-in-progress? Well she was making cornices, and she's finished already. Doesn't this look great? You can see "how-to" photos on her blog: http://cre8fmomquilts.blogspot.com/ . Take a look.

Jill, is that your portrait to the left of the window? :)

Jill's Selvage Placemats

Jill Bunis from New Jersey made a set of 5 pretty selvage placemats. She used wide selvage strips so the colorful prints show. A nice touch since she included lots of food fabrics. The backing fabric features garlic!
