Wow nice bargain. The fabric you are not fond of will look fine when it is cut and added to other fabric!

Gee, your "hideous" are the best ones, in my opinion. They're all very nice.

I love bright happy prints. I would have been doing the happy dance all over the porch. I think they are beautiful...but I will admit sometimes sunglasses are necessary to look at my quilts. :)

With all the assortment of florals you have you could probably make at least 25 different blocks and no repeats.

I think picnic quilts are a great idea for these fabrics unless you know some teenage girls, I think they'd go gaga over it. They definitely aren't for a calm and soothing quilt to cuddly with. LOL

Oh, I LOVE that idea!! These would be very pretty with black, or even chocolate brown.
