Our 4-H Clubs were recently given a large box of Ethan Allen samples. They are riveted onto metal hangers and have paper labels serged onto them. So they take some prep work to be able to use. Most are 24" square and in beautiful colors - for furniture.
Suggestions on how we can use them?

I thought of purses, but that's probably above the skill level for these kids. Pot holders would probably work though. It's such heavy fabric that it's not easy for the kiddos to work with or even cut.
Thanks for suggestions.

A simple tote bag would not be hard for kids to make...join the squares to make a larger one or make a smaller one using just one fabric.

I used samples to make "church bags". They are little bags with paper, crayons, and little things inside to keep toddlers busy during a church service. Just basically a little tote with grosgrain ribbon for handles.
You could also use the samples for different size pillows - solid one side and a print on the other side.
