I think I am just going to do a small scrappy quilt any ideas where to buy smaller pieces other than eBay, etsy?
I need to do a little research, I'm not sure why some sacks go for so much more than others. Thanks again!

I remember seeing on Ebay where some people had scraps of feedsacks they were selling. Take a look at this this one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Premium-Lot-...item5ae4f8d1d8 I type "Vintage Feed Sacks" in the search bar and spend a few hours drooling.

I think I'm going to do 4" or 5" squares and tie it instead of quilting it.
