These 4 cloths were found among our church items, but cannot be identified. They are about 30 inches long and 4 inches wide. The second and fourth image are of angels, one facing each way. they are not long enough to wrap around a adult or child, and the 4 pieces are not sewn together to make one long wrap. Help!

They look like ornate Gospel page markers.
