Sew a few bags together to make a 3 1/2' x 6' rectangle. It can be used as a moisture barrier under bedrolls or sleeping bags. A 7' x 6' rectangle can be folded in half to cover both the underneath and top of a bedroll; helps block moisture and wind. It can be simple as a tarp, or if you're feeling creative, you can add a carrying handle, ties along the side and bottom, or even sew 2 layers together (like a quilt) and add plastic grocery bags or an old blanket as batting.
Finally, please consider donating some of your creations to a homeless shelter. Even a simple sheet of plastic could help change a life.

For the non-sewers - you can also use duck (duct) tape to connect them. Waterproof and no pin holes or thread to absorb moisture or leak.
Hard to visualize, what products are you using? Pictures would be great.
