DWM-Selvages

This morning, I woke up to beautiful sunshine and 34 degrees.  Yesterday, after church, I began again on my Selvage Quilt.  At the present time, I have it in (2) sections, so it will be easier to work with while attaching the top and bottom borders.  Also, I'm planning on added 4 corner blocks with additional turquoise fabric in some type of design.  I haven't figured that part out yet.  I'm really excited about how it has turned out so far.
Last week, I sorted my selvages, so that all the longer pieces are together and the shorter pieces are now in another container.  It makes the sewing go much faster.

My goal was to use up all my selvages.  I don't think I will be meeting my goal since I still have lots of selvages that remain in my container.

Here's what I have so far....................................

  1. I love what you have done so far! That turquoise strip really is perfect! I love working with selvedges, but I think they tend to reproduce overnight! LOL!
