Default sunflower feed sack

Found this at a yard sale this weekend, don't know what I'm going to make with it yet, looks big enough to make about 3 or 4 dish towels.

I'd save that sunflower for something special if your going to cut up the sack for towels.

It would make a beautiful wall hanging. I couldn't bear to cut it up.

Use it for the center of a quilt. Please don't cut it up.

Thank you all, thought about it, and your all right, I need to put it in the middle of a quilt or an apron sounds great too.

It would make a nice panel for a quilt or tablecloth.

That's what I'd do with it, too. Maybe border it with some sunflower fabric that matches it. I love it! That was quite a score on your part!
