What fun to open your mail and find selvages! I like all your quilts. Please show us more..they are so cute. You have a wonderful talent. Do you fuse the selvages to batting and then sew them down? The only thing so far I have made with selvages is a mug rug.

Wonderfully creative use of selvedges. The first is my favorite.

Those are really cute quilts. It would take me forever to save that many selvages.

I collect selvedges, too, but I've only made one quilt so far, & it's a traditional pattern rather than pictorial, as yours are. Your quilts are wonderful. And what a treat to get those packages full of selvedges in the mail!
