    That is so cool! I have made bags out of them. I plan to make machine covers next. It is time & thread consuming. But I love it!

    That's what you call not wasting a scrap. Good idea.

    Cool. In one of the quilting magazines they made a tote bag with muslin as a base. A friend from Minnesota makes pin cushions out of salvages on a muslin base.

    I made a small quilt from them and for foundation I used ugly fabric I wouldn't use any other way. It gets covered and nobody knows. Love my quilt, it won second place in a local competition. Not a show, there were a number of different categories.

    I have been saving selvages for making a tote. I have a pattern from a quilt magazine so someday when I get enough I will make one and post it.
