I received a remnant of vintage Batman fabric in the mail that is approximately 18” x 48”.

It’s a cotton woven that’s just the slightest bit thicker than calico prints, so I was thinking of either using this fabric to make a mini pencil skirt (fully lined, to make it sturdier) or cutting it down to make two square kerchiefs and a large hair bow. I was also thinking of re-purposing the images on the unusable remnants of fabric into appliques or brooches (similar to this kitten badge by I’m Your Present).

Thoughts?

Help, I can’t decide on what to make out of this fabric! Perhaps some of my fashionably crafty readers can help me out? :)

  23. fatlu89 answered: i think if you make the hair bow you can rep the detective more often then if you made the badge. i could be wrong
