I read Riel's first novel, The Town that Drowned, when it came out, preordered it after reading about it on her blog. I have been giving my selvages to my friend who is a fiber artist and who does amazing things with them, but may start playing with them a bit myself. I would love to win a copy of her new quilting book!lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01626715334001203401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-527612360558538909.post-68568911229945544692016-05-13T13:32:53.104-07:002016-05-13T13:32:53.104-07:00I've been saving selvages but I think they mul...I've been saving selvages but I think they multiply on their own.
