Default Suggestions needed for fabric

I was at a LQS and found this great fabric, but I could only get a fat quarter. Now I'm afraid to cut it and use it in something. Any suggestions?

No suggestions, just want to say I LOVE the fabric!

Is it possible that you can mail order more (if you want/need it)? Just a thought.

Maybe they can tell you whose it is and you can find more online. It's really gorgeous!

It is wonderful. I am going to guess that this is the half without the information on the selvedge. I just hate it when that happens

Try this website, it has some great patterns that could work once you get some coordinating fabrics!

You could make it the center of a table topper. I bet it would be beautiful.

if you are asking how to use it, perhaps use it as the center of a wall-hanging or topper. applique a silhouette of something in a couple of places and carry the appliques to the borders or outside blocks.

Thanks for all the great suggestions. Feeling a bit more confident now that I have some ideas. I'll post a pic of the finished product...hopefully soon.
