You could use it for throw pillows on your sofa, or big floor pillows for the kids when watching TV.

They are 76% cotton, 24% poly. Thank you all for your tips. I just can't let them sit there, they are sooo pretty. Gotta make something with them.

They look great. You can also use them for charity quilts.

Wow what a nice lady. I guess I'd have to go along with everyone else and say bags.

definitely bags-google upholstery remnant projects and see what happens. There is a lady here in Pittsburgh that sells that by the bag along with her other items. The only negative is if there is a manufacturers label glued to it, it is very difficult to remove
