Trash Makes a Beautiful Quilt

I've been saving selvages (the finished edges on fabrics) for about fifteen months in a big jug. It was finally full and I'm in between projects; so I started a selvage string quilt. Instead of paper piecing, I used dryer sheets as my foundation piecing. I've been saving them for six months. That's a lot of loads of laundry. Not only is this quilt going to be made with what would normally go in the trash, but it's going to smell good too.
