very cute and great way to use selvages.

It makes me not want to give my Selvage's away.. I might have to save them and make a purse too. You did an awesome job.

cjomomma 09-09-2011 01:11 PM

You made a very cute tote. I'm saving them too to make a bag.

klc 09-09-2011 01:16 PM

Super cute! I'm saving mine, but haven't made anything yet.

owlvamp 09-09-2011 01:20 PM

I don't have any at this moment but will start saving some to make one too. I would love to make my daughter and sister one for christmas. Don't know if I would get that much scraps though. I will try try try ... The bag is really cute.

MrsToastyKoasty 09-09-2011 01:22 PM

Wonderful job on your bag! A lot of the items using selvages are primarily wight or light colors. I Like yours, with some color on the selvage! I live your lining fabric, too! :thumbup:

everbtrue 09-09-2011 06:02 PM

Love it!

When I first started saving the selvages, I didn't leave enough on to have color and after a bit, I thought I might want to use the color also, so started cutting an inch above the selvages. I like having a bit of color as an option.

That is so cute and "green"

It is so cute. Wish i'd saved all those salvages from all these years of sewing.

Grandma Peg 09-10-2011 05:10 AM
