Not quilting related, but I'd make appliques out of it and put it on a jean/jacket with embellishments, like beads, sequins and rhinestones. (Obviously you can't get all of them on there without layering). Find a few charms/brooches with pencils, crayons and paint and add as a perm accessory.

This is so amusing to me, it's usually my choice of fabric/design/anything that has people shielding their eyes  0_0
I quite like it @Iminei, would make a great window blind

I'd paint on it with fabric paints do a bit of free machine embroidery on it, cut it up, frame it and hang it on the wall.

I'm usually up for wearing just about any fabric but maybe not this one!  :D

I would make a shirt dress with a full skirt and cut out the patches and applique them on to the bottom of the skirt in a funky pattern.

Either that or make an art satchel for a wee girl.

I'm starting to feel rather unwelcome here at TSP.

Teasing about fabric that isn't to your taste is basically OK, I suppose, as we all like different things. But to run it down, repeatedly, as some posters here have, simply because an American designer, designing fabric for an American company and primarily the American quilt market at that, has included words with American English spelling rather than the UK spelling? Absurd!

It enters into the realm of hate speech. Apparently some of you have a real problem with American spelling. Do you have the same dislike for Americans as well?

Should we be reporting hate speech? Asking for a friend.

Hey Bill! Read the manual!  Hehehe.

You're a friend. Don't get tripped up by our sense of humour. Those of us with links to education already fight a losing battle with spelling. After reading so much American even I am getting unsure of the double letters.
I had an American boyfriend when I was young, we had a lot of fun with words like vest, elevators and so on.. Such a long time ago, I've forgotten a lot.  There is much amusement in pattern instructions in other languages if you look.
