    make dog/cat beds, couch pillows, or bed pillows...wash first and reuse those that come out good and toss the ones that ball up.

    Maybe you got this idea already but you CAN cut them into two or four and dye them and make valance curtains for your window. Depending on how many you have you can cut them into strips and braid them for trim or for cotton rugs, or trivets for hot plates on the table.

    You can tuck sheet sets into them and fold the excess under to keep the sets together. I do this all the time, especially if you have the same ones in different sizes, so that you aren't having to search out the right size. You can put blankets, etc. in them to put them away when they aren't being used to keep them clean. I do this with the old sheets that I cover my garden with when it gets cold at night in the fall to keep them separate from the good bed linens. If they are cotton, they make good cleaning rags when cut to size.
