Stop Press - I NEED your selvedges!

Oh....My....WORD!

Have you ever seen something that makes your heart beat faster, makes you want to run straight to the sewing room and start right away never-mind the fact you are half way through too many things already! Something that helps you to forget the awful job you've done on making a wonky-wont-lie-flat quilt top for Siblings Together (that one may just apply to me!)

I have seen it, the project that is so ultimately and completely me, that I know I will use all the time and I just have to try and do it.....but I NEED your selvedges! Does anyone have any they would like to donate, do you simply throw them away? Can you send them to me if you do? I am happy to cover your postage costs.

Please help me make this


I am off to email Jodie to ask if she'd mind a bit of copying flattery!

EDIT - Jodie said yes! Now to figure out what body parts I can swap for selvedges!

Whoa that is gorgeous!
There are too many cute selvedge projects around now.
I have saved a few of mine but I will start up a little collection here for you.
Kind regards

Oh Lolly and I saw this a while back - it's awesome eh! I have seam-busting anxiety - this would probably give me a heart attack!!
Good luck xxx

Holy crap, that's awesome! I'd send you some, but I only ever seem to cut mine off in teeny bits and pieces if I even get any :o/

That looks soo gorgeous!! Most of the FQ's I get tend not to have selvedges on them oddly enough! Wish I could help you =D

I sent all mine to Shay, but if I remember I will try and cut bigger selvedges than my usual miserly ones and put them aside for you.
