    Default A Talking Point! Just for fun!!

    I was asked to do a mini workshop at our Quilt Club meeting yesterday to show what I do with Selvedges! I made this for a bit of fun!! I had been doing the demo for nearly 40mins before someone asked for a closer look at my scarf!! Haha!! Great talking point after that!! I now have a problem....several girls bring me bags of selvedges.....worried now my supply will dry up!!![ATTACH=CONFIG]457362[/ATTACH]

    It is great that you will never run out of selvedges - hope you have room to store them! The scarf is great, I can see why it is a great conversation starter!!

    I have made a quilt from selvages, I am now going to have to make a scarf. That is so nice. Have a friend who makes many articles from them.
