Ohhhh very pretty fabrics! I'd use either black or white and make HST's laid out in a radiating type design for lap quilts. I recently make a quilt with one of the fabrics being 'decor' weight - it was heavier, not as much as canvas but heavier than the cottons I used. Once it was pieced and topped, no one but me could tell! Please show us what you end up with!

What fun! Now you can stare at them for days while you decide what to make!

Do you know where she purchased the fabric? I will be visiting Kauaii in May. Will be visiting quilt shops. I bought fabric at Kapaia Stitchery when I was there in 2011. Loved their fabric and their shop.

Lap quilts or throws would be beautiful but they would make beautiful tote bags or purses too. Whatever you make, enjoy.

I had one of those packets, I made a rug for a bathroom, just sew the squares and lined it with a rubberized mat. I came out really great, puts a nice splash of color on the floor.

2 round table cloths, or two aprons, or pillows, or bags, or heck, just about anything. Love the fabrics.
