You are welcome to use the idea. I used the selveges of the fabrics that I picked out to do my houses in. It was just one of those weird ideas that pop into my head and I had to try it. I've never used selveges before and found out that they have a tendency to pucker a little. Maybe a zigzag stitch would have worked better than a straight stitch.
