I have made something I can show though. A bit of experimenting, a bit of tweaking to come, and it should work out fine. Not bad considering I started making this at 11 pm last night. I felt the need to accomplish something simple.
I dont have a lot of selvages at the moment because I sent a bundle off to a friend. But it is good to use some of them, and it wont take too long for the supply to build up again.

Cute ornament - I love selvages :) I have about 30 blocks finished for a selvage quilt I'm slowly working on - when I think of how much "yardage" of those things I've thrown away over the years, it makes me cringe, lol!
My Friday night will consist of cleaning my house and doing some baking - we have hubby's family coming over for the monthly get-together on Sunday, and I'm the hostess this month. I'd rather be sewing ;)
What a cute idea! I have often thought it would be fun to have a sewing/quilting themed tree. I love ornaments made with thimbles. Did you make the tree out of felt?
really cute tree... it's amazing how quick the selvages build up.... like scraps!

This is really cute Marilyn. Don't know how you can sew so late at night! You did well. I have heaps and heaps of selvedges, so something like this would be achievable. I had envisaged a full size selvedge quilt, but that has never come to fruition.
It is so satisfying to sew something a day even if it is very small.
Very cute tree! I too have a bundle of selvages waiting for inspiration to strike...hasn't yet but I keep on chopping them off and saving them lol!
Such a lovely tree. I just have to say I love your blog heading with the pics of the kids, it is just perfect.
Lovely little tree, good start to the Christmas box. Don't think I could sew at 11pm eyelids usually drooping by that time lol
Such a sweet ornament Marilyn, Looks like you're getting an early start for Christmas 2014 :) Hope all's well with you and you're enjoying some of the rain we're getting here.
