Have fun. It wasn't really difficult, but time consuming. Just make sure your selvage wordings are right side up when you put on the top border. :D :D

Looks fantastic. What method did you use to piece together all the little bits and pieces?

Start in one corner and just them on top of the previous one - the selvege edge won't ravel.

I always hated throwing away selvages but didn't know what else to do with them. Of course, I didn't quilt then, just sewed things for my children. Never knew any quilters. Since joining this board, I have learned so much from everyone. Your tote is fantastic and made from little bits of material I thought were insignificant. Wow, I'm impressed!
