Scrappy Selvedge Bracelet Tutorial
This tutorial is great for using up those pretty selvedges that you just can’t bear to throw away, wear them on your wrists instead and be happy all day. This tutorial was made for the Scrap Busters Contest over on Sew, Mama, Sew!
You will need:
Scrappy selvedges or thin scraps of fabric.
Ribbon.
———
Trim your selvedge strips so that you’ve got three long strips about 5 3/4″ or 12cm long, and some short strips for the end.
Using a ziz-zag stitch on your machine, sew the three long strips together to make the main part of your bracelet.
Lay the shorted strips over the raw ends of your bracelet and trim to length. Sew these on also with a zig-zag stitch.
Cut two lengths of ribbon long enough to tie in a bow when attached to your bracelet, and sew them on behind the selvedges.
If you would like, sew on buttons each end through the selvedge and ribbon ends.
Now you can wear your selvedges with pride!
Super quick, super fun, super cute
