What to do with homespun?
 

I was gifted with a bag full of homespun fabric. Each piece is a yard or more. What, besides a rag quilt (which I don't want to do), would you do with all this? Are there particular patterns or designs to showcase this type of fabric?

You can do just about anything with it. The looser weave does work well in rag quilts, but that's not all it's good for.

I love homespun fabrics. You can use them for any quilt. I've mixed them with flannels, regular cottons and used them all by them selves, I've made log cabin quilts , rail fence, school house, Jacobs ladder, apple core and even a New York beauty with homespuns. They wash up so soft & just get better with age/ use. I've never made a raggy quilt with them- never thought of that.

I made a quilt out of home spun and my son loves it. Its his whenever he is on the couch. I just cut 6" blocks and sewed them together on point. I don't have a picture it looks like the same fabric you have in your picture

I use them for Primitive Wall Hanging scenes...appliqued

I made a jacket out of them.... but it seems I don't have a picture of it in a quick search. If I find it later I will post a picture for you.

I love plaids and homespuns in Log Cabins and Pineapples. This is one of my favorite quilts on the QB: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...e-t254529.html

It looks like a lot of fun. I would use it like any other fabric, just use a tighter stitch, maybe a bigger than a 1/4 inch seam allowance and closer quilting (like the one above).

I have some patterns saved for homespun fabrics that I saw on Pinterest, just do a search on there some of your fabrics are in some of the quilts.
