How about tacking them to the walls in a poorly insulated shed or barn for insulation. Has anyone tried it? I'll try it and post some pictures if it works as planned.

That seems like a good idea

And I'm just getting started!!

Here are several ideas about what to do with feed bags. Some are just pictures but some have tutorials. Basically if its any kind of bag or almost any type of aprons, straight kinds........you can find you a pattern and make them. Had more that people had for sale like zippered pencil pockets, duffle bags, etc... but here are some URL's:
