The wide fine wide lace can be used to make panties (that's what I use it for most of the time). The cotton lace makes great ruffles for little girl dresses (again that's what I do when making granddaughter dresses - little girls love ruffles). Each holiday season, our senior center dresses baby dolls for kids without Christmas (the center will give you 18 inch baby dolls to turn into gifts - blankets, cloths, diaper bags, etc.. - you can use a lot of lace on these also). Some of the narrower lace can be turned into hair bows. You can also add a lot of different lace to crazy quilts. Good luck
