Largest Selvage Quilt in the World? From NZ
This amazing selvage quilt is the creation of Debbie Pettinger of New Zealand. It measures 84" x 84!" Can you imagine? This may be the largest selvage quilt in the world. If you know of a bigger one, let us know.
Her quilting friends helped her gather this bounty, and she still has selvages left over to start her next project. I love the light touch of color she added to this multitude of selvages. Yayyy, Debbie!

What a spectacular quilt Debbie's created. I wonder how long it took her to collect so many selvages?
That's incredible! I wonder if she pieced it on a foundation. That would weigh a ton. The block is great. I love the wide strip of color to create the squares.
I wonder how long it took her to save up all those selvages even with help from her friends.
I must put making one like this on my bucket list!!
Not only large, it's lovely, too!
Hi I'm from New Zealand and no I don't know Debbie, but what an amazing quilt! She has obviously been collecting for some time!
That is HUGE! Very impressive and Thx for sharing
It's great to see such a wonderful project - I'm another Kiwi calling in. Has Debbie got a blog, do you know?
That is amazing! The larger solid-color strips really help unify the design and the grouping of the selvages into color families also helps tie it all together. Wow!
What a terrific quilt!
