As i was working on a selvage quilt this morning....i wondered....just how many selvage quilts have i made over the years. so, i decided to go and look for pics and see what i had done.
This is from 2009....the first year i kept pics and records. this background is made of selvages and the flowers have buttons and other buttons on the bottom. sold at a craft sale.
I made myself several jackets....and i still wear them today.
Inside of this one is a man's shirt from the thrift store.
This one was sold. inside is a sweatshirt...it's a pullover
This has a satin lining ... the first jacket i ever made....from a pattern.
I even made shorts...which i still wear today. inside is men's boxers.
And there were quite a few bags...sold at craft sales.
And i had a vest phase...sold at craft sales. these were all reversible.
And i managed a quilt. this one is blue diamonds
Now for 2010....stuck with quilts and made a few more.
A rail fence type in yellow, orange and brown
Log cabins in red and blacks
And one in blues.
And a neutral
In 2011....
I made one for Halloween with embroidered items in the squares. .... given away
Playing with words....says.. Put some selvages in your quilts....hanging in my studio
Blue diamonds on point
Another Halloween ghoulie quilt...donated
2012....i've been busy...huh? didn't know i had that many selvages.
I made this bathmat for the Duck. that will be the colors in the bathroom.
This one is black and white with pink flowers....a bit tilted.
Using up those blues and greens.
Color plan....hanging in my studio.
Pink and chocolate...given away
Red, white and blue...donated
And, in 2013....
Can you believe i have nothing? .... that doesn't seem right. but i think i started things....they just haven't been finished yet. i quilted up a lot of them that were just tops in the past year. perhaps i was taking a break...haha
But in 2014....let's see
I just finished quilting this bookcase for me.
These little squares are all framed in selvages.
Using the brown family.....framed garden pictures.
Selvages pieced into strips...then cut into triangles...and assembled into 'circles'...with trim around edges.
Something a friend showed me a picture of....so i had to do it. it was fun and fast.
This is a work in progress. i need enough dots to make 9 more 6" blocks. it will be queen size when finished....really close.
And a work in progress is a basket quilt made of yellow selvages.
And a selvage sun that i am working on now. ... about a third finished.
And there are a few projects in boxes...that i thought of an idea....and made a block....and put it away for future finishing.
I'd say i am a bit selvage obsessed. hahahahaha
Selvages might be my favorite quilts. let's see that is:
Wall hangings ........ 2
Jackets ................. 4
Shorts .................. 1
Bags .................... 3
Vests ................... 4
Quilts ..................18
Bathmat .............. 1
In progress ......... 3
I have also made hats, place mats, potholders and who knows what else.
I love selvages.
