some help?

hi everyone! i've got labor day all to myself, and i want to do some serious sewing. i just moved to chicago a week ago to major in fashion design at Columbia College, and i found out that there's a really big fashion week thing happening at the end of september. my professors were explaining how students could show their designs to the buyers at marshall fields and get professional feedback. so i've been doing my absolute best to sew some really cool things for that.

so after rabling, here's my question. i have one yard of light gold brocade silk (think buttercup yellow but more metallic) with goldfish embroidered on it in several different colors (green, blue, red), but those colors aren't too tacky or anything. its a really nice fabric. i have no clue what to do with it though. i only have one yard, and i really don't want to make a bag. does anyone have any suggestions? i know that all of you are really creative and i was hoping that someone would have the perfect idea. if you want to see the other stuff i've made to get an idea of what to suggest, my web site is www.chesterfaeri.deviantart.com. thanks for all of your help!
