It would make a cool border for a quilt or wallhanging for a special person or commemorating a special place or event. Fussycut along the lines of the words....and only use certain words if you like, separated by solid fabrics.

I was given this fabric from someone slashing their stash...not exactly something I would have purchased, but hey I have it now so I might as well find something to do with it...

Bonnie Hunter says that if you have a fabric you just don't like you should cut it up. If you still don't like it you just haven't cut it small enough. LOL!

I'd make a teen charity quilt from it and use the fabric for a border. Kids love wordy things...probably why the text so much.

I wouldn't do a thing to it. I'd add borders of primary colors until it was big enough for a lap or twin.. Then quilt it all over and bind with one of the colors. Any tween would love it!
