How cool is that? Crazy cool! I'd border it & use it as a quilt. It's too, too, too neat! Please post after you made this into something special, K'?

I would just iron some fusible interfacing onto the back for support and frame it the way it is.

You can see it here: http://blog.caseybrowndesigns.com/20...lections-four/
Not sure how big your piece is, or whether this would work, but I thought the idea was fabulous and plan to mount some of my own vintage hankies this way! |
I have a 'tea towel' that I bought in Italy for 3 Euro. I had it framed and it now hangs in my breakfast area. Looks good and gets nice comments, plus it reminds us of the good time we had on our only European trip! Framing cost me about $65, but it was definitely worth it.

If you like the prints for a bag, just scan and print the parts you like on fabric, and make you bag from the printed fabric. Then like the others said, make a quilt/wallhanging out of the original. The original looks bigger and you would lose a lot in making the bag.

I would save the beauty and frame it!
