"With a Little Help From Her Friends"

Anya of Wellsboro, PA made this amazing selvage wall quilt. It now hangs on the door of her sewing studio. She chose the title in honor of her quilting friends who contributed their selvages for her project. She's afraid that they will find out that there is now a market for selvages and decide to sell them on eBay rather than give them to her! Gee, that gives me an idea!

Visit her blog at: http://www.hillscreekquilter.blogspot.com/. Anya's childhood photo is precious. Also, see her method of using the machine buttonhole stitch for the binding: http://hillscreekquilter.blogspot.com/2009/02/quick-binding-stitch.html She used variegated thread in the post and it looks very nice. Thanks, Anya!
