[quote=jeanequilts]I bought a partially hand quilted quilt. It is a mini trips around the world, made of older fabrics. Some look to be feed sack, but some are newer (1940's).
Just wanted to say that feed sack fabric was available well into the 1950's. I was born in 1946, and remember eagerly waiting for the feed delivery man so that I could get first choice of the sack material I wanted him to leave. Then having to fight with my sisters over calling dibs on the ones I wanted first. I was probably around 10 at that time.
If none of us females were around to pick the sacks we want left, then he would without fail drop off the ugliest ones that no one else would pick.
