They are beautiful. The fabrics I have are the ones that one might make pillows out of, because they are actually panels that would be cut apart. I thank all of you for your input. I will definitely wash them first, and then maybe they will be softer and nice for a throw for the back of the couch or as one of you suggested, a wall hanging. I could put sashing around them too. The fabric is just so different than ours, and I wasn't sure how to work with it.
