Black and White Selvages

This is a quilt made with white, cream, beige, etc and black selvages. it is about 70x84. my sister wants it so it is going to her.

I started out making the blocks corner to corner

But that got boring quickly so i made some vertical. Even the sashings are pieced selvages.

And some horizontal or in an X pattern

Tried a crazy quilt block. they are all different....and a lot with the fuzzy selvages.

I used a panto called Vanilla Orchid. I just quilted it and didn't worry if it turned the selvages one way or another. i figured....more texture. LOL

And the binding is a wild black, white and red stripe.

Top thread is a Gray Glide and bottom was a Bottom Line sort of sand color.
