Hi, No, not to make one of all selvedges! Some throw them in the trash. I trim all my fabric of the selvedges and save them for a project just like this. I include some of the color when trimming and it ends up looking like a spiral stripe. You just add them to the rest of the cuttings. and intersperse them with all the others. How would you clean something that big? The smaller rugs can be machine washed gently and the lay them flat to dry. Anne
