Selvage-along

So fun to be inspired to use my selvages in this selvage-along. Some days ago we got the pattern for feathers. I will try to sew two of them. I had some problems sewing together the selvages, and found that it was easier with a foundation. So I made these four halves, and will make the feathers next weekend.



















I have plans for other projects too, and have started to make selvage fabrics. This is so fun, and I recommend you all to cut off and use your selvages.



















Har meldt meg på denne alongen, og for noen dager siden fikk vi mønsteret til disse, som skal bli fjær. Dessuten har jeg flere planer for jarekantene, og har startet med å lage nytt stoff ved å sy dem sammen, både rett og på skrå. Får se hva det blir til etterhvert.

Linked up to Selvage-along Midway Check-in, Bambisyr og Fabric Tuesday.

  8. These are very nice so far! I agree that a foundation is better! I've been making lots of things with selvages sewn onto muslin first. Thanks for linking up with the Selvage Along!

  11. Thank you for inspiring me. I have a bag of selvages and will start sewing them to a foundation. Then they can become any number of things!
