Hi I buy towels from Mill City Flour Sacks they are 36x36 and a nice weight you have to order 100 at a time but I have never had a problem splitting them and I use a lot of them for embroderied gifts. Mill City flour sacks 410 3rd ave. North Minnealopis Mn. 55401 phone # 612-332-3156 Ginny

Great thread I will be following to see the outcome and tips you get.

I bought the ones from Walmart just to use to in my kitchen. When they come out of the dryer they are so wrinkled that I have to iron them before I will use them to dry dishes with.LOL
And I HATE to iron. I gave one to one of my sons because flour sack towels absorb so very well and when he saw how it looked when it was washed and dryed he threw his in the trash. Not the reaction you'd want for something you put time in to embroider. Not all of the younger generation will use things that stay wrinkled and not all will iron. |
Try www.marymaxim.com I've seen flour sacks in their catalogues.

Sam's has BiG flour sack towels. I use them all the time. They are not expensive. You get a big stack of them. They are in the kitchen supply area, close to the mops and brooms.

I recently went on a search for toweling/tea towels. They didn't know what I was talking about when I went to Joanne's. They said to check online. Well, I found some thru "Quilter Studio" They sell by the yard and individual or sets of tea towels. They gave me excellent service and prices are very good. Whe my order came, there was a personalized hand written letter on the botton of my invoice letting me know about some special pricing. I will order more from them. web site is www.quilterstudio.com. The are in Westminster, Ma.
