Inspire Me, Please

I've had these fabrics for far too long, but I can't decide what to do with them. Usually I am instantly inspired by fabrics and know immediately what to make, not so with these three. So please tell me what to do with them. It can be for the kid, for me, for the house, anything. Just help! My sewing machine is crying neglect and may soon report me to DCFS. (The elephants and bright flowers are both flannel and the other, fleece.)

    I really like the middle one. I vote for you to make me a blanket with it:) Or, maybe one for your family:)

    you should use the elephant fabric to make a portable jungle playground for Rhett. You could even use the bright flannel to craft some colorful animals to fill the jungle house.

    Here is a link to a template.

    hmmm. I just made a doorstop, but that's not really exciting and you probably wouldn't want to use fleece or flannel!!

    I'll have to think upon it! But the others gave good ideas I think :)

    So I don't even OWN a sewing machine, let alone know how to USE one, but I think the first one would be super cute on a little picture board for Rhett's room. I'm thinking get batting, put inside a frame and find some lime green ribbon to run through and Wa---La, it will hold all the pictures of your little one!!!!

    ahh, great idea Niederam, a french memo board! They are actually quite easy to make and I have all of the supplies, Erin. Let me know if you would like to make one.
