If you are any sort of crafter with wood, yarn, fabric, or thread, you probably keep leftover material in case you can use it for another project. Yeah, right. Either you don't really use it at all, or you use only a tiny fraction of what you save. Since sewing isn't even my primary craft (I only make curtains, chair covers, really simple stuff) there is no real likelihood that I will have a chance to use leftovers. That's what the middle two fabrics are. The one on the right is a piece of fabric that floated around my mother's home, for presumably the same reason, for as long as I can remember, so it is at least 40 years old. Anyway, I've packaged them up nicely and labeled them in hopes that they'll do some good in someone else's to-do pile.
The piece on the left is a bedskirt. I don't have those colors/that pattern on my bed anymore. I do still have the sheets, since I use them on the futon for guests (already a totally endangered species in my environment, anyway), but I'm not going to bother with the bedskirt there.
The impractical comforter from this set was documented in an early March post.
