More Selvage Stashes!

Kathi Price keeps her selvages on these interesting hangers (above). I think that little lizzard is waving at us. Very artistic. See Kathi's blog and Etsy shop at:

Susan McConnell keeps her selvages (above) in a brown paper bag! I think I see a gray Japanese selvage in there on the right. I bet she just doesn't want to tempt burglars. (I don't mean Anya and Rita, of course!) http://hangingonbyaneedleandthread.blogspot.com/

Michele Lancaster keeps her selvages in a shallow box (above). Good idea, you can see what you're looking for. I love that colorful selvage front and center. It certainly is a "variety pack."

Jean of http://www.quiltinjeannie.blogspot.com/ keeps her selvages in bags (above). Makes sense to me. I think I see enough selvages there for a quilt, Jean! Cool shamrocks.

This vertical selvage collection belongs to Debbie in Jerusalem. When she visits New York and New Jersey she stocks up on fabric (and selvages, of course). See Debbie's blog at:
More selvage stashes to come on May 5th, 9th, and 13th! Don't miss tomorrow's post: Julia Wood's "Tic Tac Tomato." It's really amazing!!

Selvage Tote Among Friends!

Susan McConnell made this beautiful selvage tote bag. It's 18" wide x 12" tall and has lots of pockets on the inside. Perfect for a quilt show, she says. She'd better hold on tight! I love the basketweave effect and the sprinkling of black selvages; very sharp. I also like that little selvage tie looped around the button. Nice job Susan!

She and Anya are good friends. They live in Wellsboro, PA. (You've seen Anya's selvage creations here before.) You will enjoy these bantering posts on Susan's blog:
