I have a piece of yardage that was "gifted" to me (read neighbor was cleaning out her crafting area and decided to give me all the scraps she knew she'd never use). I truly wish I could post a pic, but I can't. Anyway, it's something called "Sassy Princess", a directional stripe, in BRIGHT orange, yellow, a bit of lime green in the yellow, and has little girls and green butterflies in it. The stripes are roughly 1&1/4 inches wide. I have about four yards of this garishly cute stuff.

What would you do with it? I appreciate all suggestions and ideas very much!

Use it for backing.

LOL!! I was wondering if that was all it was good for!?

do you have/know any little girls that need tote bags? that would use it up fast and be useful for someone, too.

I do not know but the fabric sounds adorable..Maybe a pinwheel type of quilt?

That fabric is so cute...
how about cutting 5'' squares then alternating with solid squares of the colors that are in the fabric. Would make a nice rainbow look. That would still leave plenty for the back and maybe a matching pillowcase.

tube quilt comes to my mind. Anything with strips looks good.
