That was also my first thought when seeing the two heavy duty fabric: backing for a child's quilt to put on the floor to play on.

Depending on the size of the panels, how about making some reusable shopping bags? The heavier-duty fabric would be perfect, and I think the artichoke one would be fun for that. And, they would be washable, which the bags you guy from the store are not.

The animal one will make really nice applique. I like the Idea for the kitchen wall hangings too.

The fish print would make a great beach bag - you could line it with some waterproof fabric The other childs print would be great for a diaper bag or a shopping cart cover!!!

the first fabrics you have all the yardage of would make good (picnic) outdoor quilts- or beach quilts
the one with 10 yards would back 3 queen quilts plus leave you a bit for adding to stash/piecing.
but the two fun prints of the heavier fabric---beach/picnic quilts!
