it would make an amazing crazy quilt look....and don't forget that if it's a rayon velvet you can emboss it using stamps and other textured items....put the stamp/item on a table, lay the piece of velvet on it upside down (right side against stamp), spritz a little water on the velvet and steam it with an iron (use a press cloth between iron and fabric). Gives you great designs to use on individual squares for a quilt.
