    I don't like it. That's my opinion.

    After a while, when my daughter was younger, I wouldn't dare to pick out anything for her. I'd take her. It was easier on both of us that way.

    There is alot you can do with that fabric. There are some cute figures on it, like the heart and roses or the wings (without the skull) You didn't say how big the designs are, if large enough, use the good ones as applique then strip the others so the designs don't show for Pot Holders, Strip blocks, Phone book blocks. If you don't want to do any of that, give it to somebody who enjoys strip quiltihng.

    I don't in large quanitity, but make lots of strip quilted Pot Holders.

    I crochet rugs from coth that I don't know what else to do with it. cut from selvage to selvage 1 1/4 in. sew ends together making a long strip and fold in half making a ball.If it is cotton, you do not have to iron it as it will stay folded when it is made into a ball. Then crochet it into a rug. You will never know what it is in a rug.
    That is what I would do with it. Good luck
