Bag plans, bag plots, recycling and angsting

So, now that we have a heap of local vintage folk-costume fabric (I would feel like a vandal but we only buy things that are a bit damaged or otherwise not completely usable - though this did not stop one friend from shrieking in horror at the idea that we'd cut old folk aprons for our embroidered bags - and then buying two :) ) I have to work out what to do with it. So here is a quiz - what do you think these are going to be? They are old silk on cotton folk ribbons. You can buy these nowadays, but they are always synthetic and usually the patterns are less wonderful (still nice though). But these are the real thing: There ought to be some sort of prize for the winner I suppose. Hmmm.
