My first thought for the first fabric was Attic Window wall hanging. It would look like you're looking into a "general store" or the like. I like it! :thumbup:

I like them! It's all is how they're used--as some mentioned.

I like the fabrics.

Where did you find them?

They would make very nice placemats for the fall, or table runners.

I like the one with all the pumpkins and I love the cream one with the oak leaves and acorns.

too busy for a background in a block for a quilt.
I would use it in the sashings/borders.

I had a similar cloth, and what I did with it, it was too busy . It really depends on how you use it.Check out my table runner.

I love them. If you used a solid to sash them, it would be beautiful.

Ditto.

The first one a closeup. Sorry I don't have a better "over-all" one.

The first would make a nice panel to do a quick fall quilt.
