So I am getting better at photos! I need your help. Here I am at a fabulous French market, where this lovely man is selling French woven cotton and linen. I must buy some, it feels wonderful

The tea towel type fabric is 60cm wide

The check (colours more lovely in life) is 150cms.

What would you make? No rush, he will be here next week (God willing) and so will I!

Hoping these load, am doing this from my phone!

Thank you!

Ooh... interesting fabrics! I'm genuinely not sure... the white fabric is giving polo shirt vibes - maybe something Wimbledon inspired!

With the white ones, you could maybe sew a caftan or a dress with center seams on the front and the back, playing with the stripes.
With the checked one, maybe a long skirt or pants.

And also, a pinafore with the check one could be great
