Op-shoppery: Recent fabric pickings (part 1)

Just some of the goodies recent thrift store visits have uncovered. First up a bag of fabric pieces plus a knit pattern for tees:
  
I'm not sure how i feel about the striped fabric, hoping it may be usable for maybe a bucket hat or perhaps pants for DS but not sure about the colours on him. I love the flower print for it's retro style.
Not in love with the train print but am pretty sure DS will be!

There isn't quite enough of the train fabric for a full child's garment but I figure a pocket or two (or maybe a hood lining?) can be squeezed out.
It's turning to colder weather here in Oz and suddenly fleece fabric - in any form- is starting to look good...
 Pays to be overprepared in the winter clothing stakes when you have two very mess-making three year olds running around ;)
