I’m so excited!!

The apron I made for the great Christmas Apron Challenge has been featured on Karen’s Selvage Blog at www.selvageblog.blogspot.com. What an thrill this is!!

I shudder when I think of all those selvage strips that I used to cut off and throw away. Not any more – the Selvage Blog has so many ideas of what to do with them all. This is my first selvage project, but I certainly have plans for more.

I love it Jenny and well done. I haven't looked at the selvedge blog but think I'll have to go there! Your apron is so festive. I'm not "into" aprons but they seem to be the thing at the mo and it'd be an excuse to get more fabric!!

What a brilliant apron design and clever use of the selvedges. Great to see a kiwiquilter being featured.
