Selvage USA Flag


Diane Rode Schneck of NYC made this cheerful selvage version of a USA flag. I like how the color windows suggest stars. I also like how she used fringed selvages to add a shabby chic flair.

    Interesting effect. I was cutting some fabric last week and noticed the selvage edge was fringed, hadn't really paid much attention to it in the past.

    Thanks for the nice words, about this and about The World's Biggest Selvage a couple days ago.

    I tell everyone this is the flag of the United States of Selvagia.
