Adventures of a Novelty Fabric and Selvage Obsessed Quilter

Glad you stopped by!

I am a busy wife and the mom of 19 year old twins, a boy and a girl who are Sophomores at Syracuse University.

I have been quilting since the spring of 2008. I love novelty fabrics, colorful and unique.

Selvage quilting is addictive! Who knew the "junk" we cut off and threw out would be what I now save! I started a new tradition when I travel--visiting quilt stores! I particularly enjoy going to stores that have been named in the Quilt Sampler Featured Shop Lists-

Selvage Pillows!!!

I have been thinking of making new
pillows for my daybed in the
room o' selvages for sometime now.
I wanted them to be mostly black and white,
with some reds, yellows and tans.
I won this awesome fabric on Ebay recently,
and knew it would be perfect for pillows!
I thought 5 selvage pillows would be too much,
so I made 3 out of the fabric,
and 2 out of selvages.

Before:
mid selvage transformation!
I love how they turned out,
and I think they give the daybed
a nice look!

    Yes, they are wonderful. I think two is just the right number.

    Jill, you are amazing! Love the pillows. I think we should have the World Selvage conference in your yellow room!

    The pillows look great playing off the black and white fabric. Great room.

    Terrific! The selvage and b/w fabric pillows on the selvage/string quilt look wonderful!
