Ok in the same booth there were also food sacks. Was wondering if these could be from food sacks? Also, on one of the strips was this very pretty little blue flower.

I don't know if they are from food sacks or not. I do know there are some beautiful fabrics there.

They look like feed sacks to me. I just inherited lots of small pieces of fabric that are similar from an aunt. I plan to make a quilt and title it "For the love of Audrey" from them.

Hi, you have found a great collection of lovely fabrics. Yes, feed sack fabric is what people used in the old days when cotton fabric was expensive and difficult to come by. It would go well with the Southern Belles or Bonnet Girl blocks you showed in another post. Here is a link that explains more about it. http://thelongthread.com/?p=9677 Happy Quilting!
