I just noticed that hobby Lobby has "duck Cloth" they had in the same patterns as the Quilting fabric. What do I do with Duck Cloth?

Quack?? hehe

it's a heavy-weight cloth that's used in outdoor furniture, bbq aprons, etc.

Can you use it for handbags?

if they're not to fussy. since it's thick, it would be hard to cross multiple seams. otherwise it would be a good choice. you'd need to finish the edges, because they fray.

Might be good for a rag quilt. :-)

I do the out of the ordinary recycling. I wanted to make my two grandchildren a throw using some of their dad's Army BDU (uniforms no longer in use). I used the quilt as you go method and it worked ok.

Great job and use of recycling fabrics!
