The selvage quilt is beautiful. When you're trimming your fabric, how wide do you cut the selvage?

Wow! That's so gorgeous! I've been saving selvages too! Don't throw them away quilters! Send them to me! I'll need to collect many more years to have enough for a quilt like yours! :D

Here is what I made with the selvages, then I machine quilted it on my Gammill Premier Plus. I didn't buy anything new for this quilt, I already had the thread, the backing, the binding & the batting. It was lots of fun to do. (and a personal challenge to use only what I already had)

I would have never thought of making a quilt from selvages. Beautiful!
