I've been buying fabric like crazy

Yesterday I went with my sister to a large fabric store at a shopping centre outside town. This is what I came home with. Except for the green fabric in front which is a lovely mix of linen and wool that I bought from Eikthyrnir when I was in Hamar last weekend.

Clockwise, starting with the Marvel fabric it is: Blackout fabric with Marvel characters for our bedroom, plastic coated table cloth with mushrooms, blue and white striped polyester that was really cheap and may turn into skirts for me and my girls (it's the colours of the football team we support), burgundy cotton broadcloth, just a remnant that may turn into a skirt for me. Or something. Green cotton with pink polka dots, which will probably become skirts for me and Maja, blue viscose lining for matching dresses for me and my best friend Inger, the orange next to it is the lining for hers; I have this checked Indian cotton fabric where orange and blue are the dominant colours and it is enough for dresses for both of us. Then, ignorign the wool/linen blend, there's a burn out velvet in green and black polyster, which I will make another 1920s "one hour dress" from , for my sister's 1920s themed birthday party in December. Inspiration from Jen Thompson's "Downtownesque one-hour dress". The patchwork patterned fabric in the middle is a thin cotton that will be turned int either dresses or skirts for me and Maja.
