PROMISE QUILT


Carol brought in this promise quilt and we love, love, love it!  She left it for us to admire (and blog about), and now we're all wondering...so what exactly is a promise quilt? 

Google searches yielded few results, so we ask you:  "What makes this a promise quilt?"

ONE HOUR

One hour on a wintery Saturday afternoon
with Melissa and Elizabeth. 


And 5 of the cutest darn pin cushions I've ever seen!

This pattern came for a cool site we found while looking for the perfect pin cushion pattern...(http://tipnut.com/22-free-pincushion-patterns/)

DEAR SANTA,

Don't get me wrong, you have wonderful taste...but let me make a suggestion:

Selvedge has my wish list.  Just send in an elf and they can't go wrong. 

Thank you in advance for a pretty package (Selvedge gift wraps too, just so you know) of all my favorite fabrics.

Sincerly,
Betty Sews

CUSTOMER PROJECTS!!

Well!  The sewing bug has bitten.  It has been a busy day here at Selvedge!  Here is what the masses are sewing:

baby quilts, baby quilts, baby quilts, aprons, bags, pillow cases, coasters, quilted place mats, and scarves - phew!!  Don't tell them I told you, if you happen to get a gift of this sort for the holidays - hee hee.


But those aren't the only customer creations this week, check out this ridiculously cute, and appropriately themed (salvage, selvedge, selvage...) FLOOR PILLOW. Is this Amy Butler's Gum Drop pattern??!

THIS IS THE BASEMENT

Some space just opened up in the basement of Selvedge, which leaves us with a dilemma...what to do with it?!!  Take the poll to the left or leave us a comment and let us know what you would like to see the space used for. We're thinking about: selling used machines, creating a workspace for classes and 24/7 sew lounge, or having a sale room of discounted fabrics.  Ideas?

free motion embellishments

I made this for a friend's first birthday.  It is a cute (and cheap) outfit from Pass It On, a second hand kid's shop around the corner. Lovingly embellished with scraps of fabric and my handy dandy free motion foot.  Hopefully her mom doesn't see this post before I drop it off :) (The tights are from Blackbird)
