What to do with these fabrics?

I bought 2 yards of each of these fabrics many years ago and I don't quite know why. They're both Robert Kaufman screen prints. I'm not sure if they're really beautiful or gaudy! Anyway I have no idea what to do with them. Couldn't bear to cut them up for a quilt. Perhaps tote bag or table cloth.? Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Jinny Beyer uses a lot of border print fabrics in her designs. Here's a link to some block ideas from her website. Cutting into the fabric isn't to hard ....... lol just take a deep breath and go for it.

Opps forgot to add her website ...... jinnybeyer.com

I had purchased a small amount of the stripe about 10 years ago. I loved it then and I still do. I used it in a mitered block design. I probably wouldn't cut up the other one and use it as a large tote bag or table topper.

The top one would look good as 4 patch posey. The bottom could be border

there are many photos if you Google the title

Those are beautiful.
Perhaps a table runner with the striped fabric as a border treatment?

I think the main print would make an amazing One Block Wonder .... that's if you enough repeats (6)
Otherwise I'm with Pattypurple and would do the 4 patch posey if you have only 4 repeats.

I can understand not wanting to cut the first one. The second one would be a great border. Someone else mentioned Jinny Beyer- she does amazing things with border prints

Table or bed runner quilted kantha style (look that up on Pinterest). I agree that the stripe would make a good border for the print. Tote bag would be cool as well.

I agree with looking at a Jinny Beyer pattern. Some of them are free. That fabric is amazing! I would have bought it also!!
