I know quite a bit about 1930 fabrics. My suggestion is----go to 'ebay'. Look up 'feedsacks'; 'chicken linen';'vintage fabrics'; ect. When the different sales come up, look carefully at the pictures. Look at the descriptions for size, color, what year the fabric may have been manufactured. You can even ask questions from the seller if you like. Looking is free at the 'ebay' site.[Unless you decide to purchase an item]. You will have to register . It is full of imformation. I found an old feedsack for sale that looked just like a piece of fabric someone had used to make a curtain for a very small bookcase. I bought the bookcase at auction Removed the fabric, washed and set aside. It was blue background, had civil war hats, swords, ect. When on 'ebay',I looked up feedsacks. Saw civil war feedsack. Clicked on the site, and saw my piece of fabric. Quite a surprise. I printed off the information the seller wrote about the feedsack. Just for my own knowledge. Prices for these items vary.Condition, print, size, color, location , age, all come into play. On last tidbit, feedsacks have a look and feel to them. Easy to recognize. Much of 1930's fabric was feedsack, cotton percale, and cotton sateen. Enjoy the learning, the hunt and also the quilting!!!!!
