historicalish fabrics!

So of course, while I was in Boston, I had to go to Sewfisticated. *happy sigh* Man, I miss that store. Thanks to a tip from sarahlizzi, I knew they had some historical-type printed cotton lengths for $2/yard, so I figured if anything caught my eye, I should pick it up! Here's what I got:




All three are from Windham fabrics. Clockwise from top left, that's an India Chintz 1730-1800 (pattern 27849) (isn't it amazing and hideous all at once?), Wm. Penn's Vision, c. 1820 (pattern 25500), and Colonies Archives c. 1850 (pattern 26643).

The chintz and the dark red fabric are around 10 yards each; the black with the stripes is only a little more than two, but I loved it so much that I had to buy it anyway. I don't have the faintest idea what I'm going to do with any of it, but I couldn't pass it up. Uh...anyone have any suggestions?
