My daughter gave me a whole collection of '30s fat quarters from Keepsake Quilting year before last at Christmas. Many of the prints are similar to the feed sack material. We got chicken feed in sacks even though we lived in the big city of Paris, Arkansas. I remember one pinafore that mother made me - it was purple stripe and solid purple. We could always tell if a dress was made out of feed sacks if it had two different prints in it. Now we pay big money for boutique shirts made from different prints. go figure
