What to do with epic embroidery?

So I've been working on this insane doodle of things I love in embroidery and the more I get done on it the less I want it hanging on a wall. It's almost too cool for wall art. I first thought it was going to be a hanky but its out of control I could never wipe my nose on it! lol So any ideas?

Quilts... maybe a piece of clothing like a vest or skirt. Maybe patches for jeans or jackets?

american apparel has these great scarves.. they're called jersey knit.. something or other.. and my mom embroidered these epic flowers on one end of one for me.

Everyone comments on how much they love it, and where did I get it.. etc. It be a great way to show off your talents with drawing and embroidery, and give you something fun to wear?

Just an idea. good luck!
