Feed Sack fabric
#1
Has anyone made a whole quilt out of feedsack fabric? I have a little collection of squares and some whole feedsacks. I was just thinking maybe since the fabric is so loosely woven maybe it would be better to alternate squares with some modern quilting cotton. Any thoughts, anyone? I appreciate your comments.
