Ok, here are some pics I took of the feed sacks. One of them you will notice ran out of one color of a certain design and therefore they substituted a piece from the same design of bag with a different color. I feel this is good evidence that there were different colors of the same designs as we see today. I also have to add what confused me was that there were no drawstrings that I was looking for to identify them as feedsacks. Again: The bag I bought said, UNFINISHED BAGS: $1.00

Thanks for the pics !! |
Those are very pretty feedsacks! They bring back memories that will never be again. When cleaning out my Great Aunt's house I found a dresser with drawers full of feedsacks. My grandmother said many she remembered from when she was a child. This was about the time the feedsack frenzy had struck the quilt world and original feedsacks were selling at crazy high prices. I sold them all except a few of the oldest ones I had framed for my two DDs to have, to a textile collector (her house looked more like a fabric hoarder to me) That lady offered me a fortune for all of them. She had to have them. I have no idea what she ever did with any. I moved away from the area years ago.
