Love it. I was going to say a stack and whack would be beautiful in this fabric.

I use an old mattress pad to make new pads for my ironing board. I also use drop cloth fabric to make new ironing board covers. These are held on the board with a draw string so I can take them off and wash them when they get starch build up.

I thought I would post pics of the first two sampler blocks that I am making with this fabric for the QB 2013 BOM. I know this fabric, Patch of Roses by Hampton Print Works, was curtain or drapery fabric but it will be happy to live out it's life in a quilt.
