Pseudo houndstooth looks like 60's upholstery, don't really care for the others either.
 
Why do you have so much laying around? Why not bring it to a tailor to have it made up into something you can wear? Or are you planning on cutting a hole in it yourself so you can wear it as a poncho?

I always have a few things being made at any given time. I just have lots of cloth. I'd be crazy to have it all made at once. But in general the cloth gives me pleasure, like cigarettes or watches or sex, drugs and rock and roll or demounting. It prolongs and enhances the bespoke process for me like multiple organisms. When I see cloth I like I buy it I don't wait until my tailor is finished with something else.

Make sure moths don't get to it!
 
Snap, I thought I was hoarding cloths. Nice collection, BTW!
Though I could make stuff for myself, I always end up telling myself: Lets just wait 'til you lost weight! It'll look so much better then.

thanks. despite the flannel being advertised as golden age pre war, i believe it is in fact post war. The markings on the cloth refer to a "Victory" finishing process, so my best guess would be after the victory, late 40s early 50s. Pretty sure it is the oldest cloth I have.
Also the tie in the AA image is something of platonic ideal for me. In midnight, navy or black with medium to large geometric prints with red. I'm always looking out for ties like that.

Colours are not correct in any of the fabrics.. the one on the left has a reddish hue and not green. This is the correct colour.

The tweeds are a present. I am not sure If I will have made into a jacket as they will hardly get any use.
 
The plaid Looks like a candy cane

The houndstooth - no

50/50 on the windowpane. Less red would be nicer especially if it has what looks to be a green and reddish check

This is a proper and better picture of the same fabric. I know my photographic skills suck
