Cut it up and hem on all edges to make pillow covers, window coverings, table runners, etc. You might even be able to add sections to towels, clothing, etc.
Is it cotton? You might be able to save it? Also if cotton, you could dye a darker shade. Once you start cutting into it, it will unravel.
You could use it as a model or form to spray paint a table top or counter top. The paint would pick up the pattern of the crochet yarn and transfer it to a counter or table. If it is lacy it would be very pretty. Other wise you might fold it for the bed of a pet or donate it to a needy animal hospital. I am not saying it isn't worth salvaging, but you asked for projects from what we could read. Claudia, i hope you find a good use for it.
If Cotton, make a mixture of oxiclean and dawn Bring to a boil and put the cloth in while hot. let it set until cool. remove and rinse . Then hang in the sun for most of the day.
Inised a mod pudge type paste and used mine and my hubby grandmas crotched pieces and made an art piece, and table runner with them! Maybe cut into table runner for table/accent piece?
