Someone mentioned the house-shaped selvedge blocks shown on the Empire Quilt Guild website, May's BOM. I won them. You can see how they're put together at www.empirequilters.net
On the same website in Show & Tell for May there's a picture of me (Verna Fitzgerald) holding the small wall hanging I made using selvedges. I've been saving them for about a year, since I saw a selvedge quilt at the Empire show in May 2009, and this was my first attempt to make something. Karen Griska, the woman behind www.selvageblog.blogspot.com, is a member of Empire and I've become one of her "groupies".
