I’ve been dying to make a rain coat! I live in Seattle where it constantly rains and I found the most adorable pattern! And then I would make a matching hat!

I would love to make a stylized Baroque-style long overcoat, without frills and ruffles but still just a tiny bit dramatic. And some huge outdoors cushions/poufs for my balcony.

I would most likely make a cape out of it with fleece lining- imagine it: Warm and Fuzzy on the inside, Chic and water repellent on the outside! I would probably make it out of solid colors, having two pockets for my hands and have it hit my waist.

I love oil cloth to make garden pillows… It usually comes in beautiful colours and designs and it’s water resistant!

I would make a rain hat for me and slickers for my 2 dogs or travel jewelry organizers. I think the finish on the oilcloth would prevent the jewelry from catching on fibers of the fabrics I have used in other organizers. I would love to also make a clothes pin hanger as I always forget to bring in the one I have before it gets soaked in the rain. Having a hanger out of oilcloth would lengthen the live of the pins.

I am certainly enjoying reading what everyone would do with their oil cloth! I am going to steal some of these ideas. (Evil laugh!)

I would love a raincoat made from oilcloth because the prints are so awesome. Or some pillows for the garden furniture, it would be a great way to put a bit of colour in those.

I think I’m too late, but a raincoat would be my choice. We’re entering the rainy season here in the Bay Area, and a bring cheery coat would be a very welcome addition to my wardrobe.

I’ll recover my dining chairs. With my little one always spilling something or the other they are better off in a wipeable fabric.

We have a metal gazebo that we use every day during the nicer weather, and the canopy that came with it is literally disintegrating after 3 years. I’d love to make a bright, new canopy out of oilcloth!

Oil cloth purse is a must have!
