Okay, farmgirls, let me have your ideas! I have a vintage-inspired piece of Christmas fabric, rectangular, that measures 43" by 12". What would YOU make with it?
Looking for some ideas...

table runner
Patchwork with coordinating fabrics so you have a larger piece to work with more options.

Sounds perfect for a table runner - maybe with a pieced border.

my mom has made the grandkids table runners from my grandmas vintage material. Then she takes anything left over and has made fabric ornaments, mug rugs, wine glass cozies. Waste nothing. I love having those pieces and thinking of my grandma.

Michele,, yeppers, waste nothing...
I use to watch a Quilt Auction on TV (11+ yrs ago)... and some of the quilt tops , were made with quarter sized pieces stitched together. Amazing,,,

If you really love the fabric and don't want to cut it up, how about putting it under glass in a serving tray?

I'm all about aprons so I'd find a way to use it for an apron or as part of one.

I love the idea of a teddy bear, table runner, apron, pillow cover, mug rugs, coasters, covering a notebook or journal.
