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 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!
