Let me start by saying, I have not been a selvage saver
though I have been considering doing so.

I've started this thread to encourage a discussion about Saving Selvages.
... the good, the bad and the ugly!!!!

Some questions that could help me, and hopefully many other people ....

1. Do you? I do. or Don't you? save selvages.

2. Why do you save selvage? Because now I can't throw them away.
Do you have an end-purpose-project planned? What?No specific plans, although, I have used them in a couple of pincushions. There are plenty of things I hope to make and quilt some day.
Do you keep them for historical referencein case you need more later? No.

3. How much do you keep ... width? length? I cut about 2" widths.
What do you do with them, once they have been cut... I fold them up and store them together in a container.

4. What questions have I not asked? Please answer those too!!
