I've made a variety of projects with skulls. It really has to be specifically requested or okay'd by the recipient. I used a similar fabric of swords and skulls for a pirate fan's bookmark and pillowcase.

Maybe you could do this?
Take the right size square ruler and fussy cut out all the hearts and flowers motifs....Then set those in nine patches with black to make an interesting irish chain. wall hanging?
Maybe somebody would swap?
