I can’t wait to see your quilt finished! I used a basting gun for the first time in February they are good aren’t they? And I totally agree with you about the needle being somewhat sharp!!

That’s a great idea – I used to used laddered tights and stockings but as I no longer work in an office environment I don’t have a ready supply!

Thanks for visiting and taking the time to comment Suzan. I like the idea of using them on postcards – will make a separate bag for those ones that are prettier!

Like you I’ve kept selvedges for years, I often use them on fabric postcards to separate message from address sections on the back. Some I’ve come across have little pictures in the fabric colours (Lewis and Irene) and little quotes (Moda)

All these great uses for them – I save the less pretty bits for tying up my plants in the garden!

Cute idea Abigail. I make things with the ones I save but now I’ll be doing this too!

That’s good to hear! What do you make with them currently?

Cute small items – pin cushions, candle/mug mats & Xmas decorations. Great cheap things for craft fairs

Good ideas – will keep in mind.

I also wrap presents in fat quarters for those stitching friends and finish off with either selvages or ribbon, therefore nothing gets thrown away! Like you I think everyone knows to do this! Great to put it into writing for those who have yet to discover this wrapping method!

What a great idea to use a FQ as wrapping paper – I hadn’t thought of this!!
