Can anyone suggest a use, suitable or not, for this charming fabric:

Looks to be close to canvas weight so bags, skirt, corset fashion fabric, lightweight jeans, jacket, camp shirt, bondage harness, freak flag.

They suggest curtains, blinds, occasional upholstery, dressmaking, craft.

Based on the photo with the scissors these aren't exactly small so I personally would probably not do a garment unless it were more subtle.  Perhaps blinds in a workshop or garage would be a suitable use. 

@Puzzler I can't tell if you are anti or pro this fabric.  :thinking:

You'd have to fussy cut, but it could make quite a pleasing mask.   :thumbsup:   :laughing:

Hint: I won’t be buying any of it.

Hello-

Likewise, not a fan of this product... but as things are how they currently are, how about using it as a cover for the television?
