My thoughts exactly! It really looks like book edges. What an awesome original quilt!

Love it! I would never have thought to use the selvages this way - it's neat!

I've been saving my selvages for that purpose. I made one of my spare bedrooms into a library and wanted to add a library wallhanging on the door. Like how you added photos on yours. I'm thinking adding photos of my kitty on mine.

Using your picture of quilt, I can see doing sections as I gather salvages. so can start now and keep going. Not such a big project. I do have a shoe box supply now. Think I'll line them up by size, I like how all the colors are mixed. I don't have a printer so will need to see how to get some photo's made, maybe the t-shirt place or other quilters.
