I have a large collection of such items also. They almost need to be used in wallhangings or other items that are purely decorative as they won't hold up to a lot of laundering or dragging around like a quilt made from new fabrics. They do make lovely crazyquilted memory items. They would also be great for a ringbearer pillow, or bride's purse or apron. I used an old set of linen napkins embrodered with tea cups to make my kitchen curtins special. The napkins were white with a decorative rolled edge in delft blue.
