About a week ago, I was contacted by Karen of
Venezie Designs, asking whether I wanted to enter a voting challenge of items made from selvages. Of
course!! I sent her three entry pictures and she chose Spool Play.
Whew! I'm up against some stiff competition for sure! It's early in the voting but so far I think Jules from Chicken Julie is gaining an immediate lead with her
Blogger's Quilt Festival entry. A whole quilt made with blocks like these--it's stunning!
(picture grabbed from Jules' blog--hopefully she won't mind, since it's almost like I'm telling you to vote for her instead of me...)
By the way, Jules will be featured in a future Name Game spotlight, actually a
double spotlight because her Flickr/etsy name is Chicken Julie, but her blog name is
From Three to Insanity. Don't worry. I won't hold it against her if she beats me by a landslide. She is super creative and I can hardly wait to hear how she chose each of those names.
But back to the topic at hand. I would of course LOVE to get even a few votes. But like I said. Stiff competition. Go see for yourself!

Lovely spools.
Thanks for your comment, I really appreciate comments from overseas!
Clare
I'm off to vote. I love those spools.
Oh dear, I have to choose between two talented friends!
Vote is made for your wonderful quilt. The thing I love most is it ties it to the world that selvages come from - sewing. Good luck!
Thanks for the love and good luck to you - your spool quilt is gorgeous.
i love your spool quilt! such eye-candy!
I like the use of a sewing theme in the selvage contest, so I voted for you. Great job!!
Aren't you in midwest at a retreat? Hope you are having fun!
Selvedges are my Achilles heal - you are both winners!!
I cast my vote! I love your spools!!!
