    Those are really nice. Quick question, how wide should the selvedges be to make stuff?

    Lynnie25 how wide do you cut the salvedges. I would be willing to save them for someone but would want to be sure they were wide enought.

    Adorable quilts you made with just selvages. I love the seal with the ball the best.

    I love your creativity and designs. Soooooo cute. Too bad I live so far away, would love to see your show. I save selvages too, and have been sewing them diagonally on paper foundations by color (I save both edges) and will make a picnic quilt with them. Love to see everyone else's ideas.[ATTACH=CONFIG]544225[/ATTACH]
