    This is my suggestion too. They make great tea towels or dish towels. They work great. An apron would be nice from it too.

    I make period shirts for my husband who crews on the Friends Good Will, a tall ship. It's lovely fabric but I have finished each seam so it doesn't ravel. I am wondering if you need to do something on a quilt, even making more than a 1/4 inch seam so it doesn't fray out.

    I have made several Buggy Barn quilts mixing homespun with cotton in my blocks. Love it!
