Two more finds! One bought and one from the swap. I bought the 'ticking' type fabric. It's got a little red square woven into it with 'feathery' ends on one side. I thought it might make a nice jacket lining, or even an outer fabric if it had an underlining. We'll see ... The 'cherry' print is a chiffon and I'm going to have a try at hand rolling the edges, something I've never done before and that I've seen a lot on scarves and such like.
