Marshmallows would look cute in a jar or pantry quilt.

My husband picks up and recycles cans so the first two would make a perfect throw for him. The marshmallows would make a great pillow case and the wishbones would be fantastic for dog beds. The words could be done for a comic book enthusiast.

Marshmallows might be cute for a pillow case. the others might make cute drawstring bags or purse liners. I like using odd fabrics for drawstring bags.... then you can always identify it fast. Also, if you like to use quilted book covers, or snack / lunch bags. Did you know that storing your quilts in plastic bags is not good for them? It could cause them to yellow, and stain the folds. A cotton bag or pillow case works well to protect your quilt while in storage.

interesting...... very interesting. I thought about stack and whack for the cans and energy drinks. But, I think it would lose its Value in that. I kinda like the idea to use those as a backing fabric for a lap quilt. You might use the wishbones for backing for a quilt where a chicken or turkey is your focus fabric. Like I said....... Interesting, very interesting!

S-mores for the marshmallows - in a row style quilt - Using blocks that would show case the fabric: light brown(graham cracker) on the 1st row, 2nd row the marshmallow fabric, 3rd row dark brown (chocolate) repeat ending in a light brown row. Now I will be looking for a yard of this in my favorite shop Have fun with whatever you end up doing.

I think the marshmallows and wishbones are boring. I immediately thought of a comic themed quilt with the kaboom fabric. Especially with the "The Avengers" and other comic book based movies coming out. It would make a great border/sashing. The can one would be a good border/sashing like people said for those who love energy drinks.
