Any ideas would be gratefully received!

It is beautiful.

What about making a lined roll up pouch with compartments for keeping sewing materials, like the tape meausure, scissors, box of pins, needles etc.

That material is fab, I’d go with something to store your sewing/knitting in

Lovely material.  I’d probably go for a bag for your sewing stuff, too, or you could line a sewing basket with it.

LOL What beautiful fabric! I do that all the time, buy fabric just because I like it, then don’t have the heart to cut it up! LOL

You could just send it to me!!!!!!
That would make a lovely sewing machine dust cover with matching accessories like a pincushion and needlebook.
