I saw a salvage quilt at a show someplace and I think it was miniature log cabin blocks - one side of the blocks (the lighter side) was all made of salvage and the other was the darker colors - it was really cool - looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Whoa, that is some selvage stash! I've been saving mine, but I don't have as much as needed for a project yet. Guess I use too many pieces of scrap that have been de-selvaged ;-)
That's alot of selveges!!!!! Got any green and aqua to spare? I made one valence for my sewing room in those colors and need more to get the other window done....gotta go through alot of green and aqua to have enough!
My selvage supply is out of control too. I like your first step of organization. OK--now you're committed to a project. We'll be watching, looking forward to seeing what you choose.
I think I have selvage envy. I'm saving mine too but don't have anywhere near what you have... but that's okay I'm still not sure what to do with them yet.
My selvages are getting out of control, so I'm planning a project that I hope to have finished in time for my guild's exhibit in September.
We'll see what happens...
I am curious???
ReplyDeleteI intrigued and jealous at the same time.

ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you do with them. I have a very very small portion of your size.
ReplyDeleteNo matter what, it will be great! YOU GO GIRL, we all wait with anticipation! Having snow in my part of PA, how about you? Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteHmmm...your selvage pile looks just as out of control as mine!
ReplyDeleteSo this is your out-of-the-box challenge--you're going to bring in piles of artistically arranged selvages! A real post-modern, "edgy" art piece.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a big project Anya! Can't wait to see what it is.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is one beautiful stash of selvages. I can't wait to see what you will make with them!

ReplyDeleteHoly Moly, Anya, you have a lot of selvages!
ReplyDeleteI just throw mine away. I think maybe I should start saving them. I am seeing all kinds of interesting projects for them in blogland.
Can't wait to see what you do with yours.
