My comment is this: If it's not usable for humans, I would certainly rather donate it to an animal shelter or whatever. Since double-knit fabric doesn't ravel, it wouldn't even have to have binding. I would much rather see it used in an animal shelter than to clog the waste disposal facilities across our world. As Prism said, double-knit wears like iron, but it is much warmer than you would think. I have a 92 year old aunt who used double-knit to make floral appliques on quilts -- perhaps they wouldn't qualify -- because her quilts were (and are) very pretty!

Absolutely no criticism intended -- because, on the other hand, the time spent to make something usable from these quilt tops may be time better spent.
