From the Smithsonian, read how feedsacks were turned into clothing:
Feedsack Clothing
With that in mind, finding this bolt of what I thought was vintage fabric but turned into 4 full feedsacks sewn together to make a little over 2 1/2 yards of fabric a pretty special find.
Really, who can resist such a colorful and happy fabric?
When I took it off the bolt to measure it, I then noticed the sewn seams.
It begs the question as to what the original owner's plans regarding this fabric was? Do you suppose she wanted to make a new dress? Or perhaps this was the start of a quilt.
At any rate, it's a special find. Click over to the Vintage Fabric button and read all about it!
