The one where I multi-tasked (and selvedged)

I'm *still* ploughing my way through the school uniforms!  I cant go very far from the machine as (a) very occasionally the machine gets hungry and tries to eat a sweatshirt, and (b), although each one only takes 6 minutes to embroider I need to trim the threads on the one that has just finished and hoop the next one, which leaves just 3 or 4 minutes free before I need to set up the next one.

So I need an easy project, that requires no planning or thinking, and that I can leave as often as I like and come back to easily.  Today's multitasking was selvedge edges.  I have a drawer full of them, so I've joined similar lengths together.


Not sure what I'm going to do with them next, but together with all these
 
and the lovely Pinterest (https://uk.pinterest.com/slikstitches/selvedge-inspiration/) I'm sure I can get some good ideas

In the meantime - I have some more of these to do!
