That is so cool. In the 80's I bought a few 25 pd. bags of flour so I could use the sacks for my quilt.

I love all those old quilts from back then. Love the fabrics to.

That was so awesome to get to see. Thanks

What a wonderful treasure! Thanks for sharing the story!

A beautiful quilt, a special grannie and loved the story behind it, love the vintage fabs and feedsacks and have some feedsacks myself and mix them in my quilts with old and new fabs. Lucky you! It's a beautiful quilt! :-D :-D :-D

I'm Not jealous! I'm not jealous! I'm not jealous! Well, maybe a little bit! Happy you.... I do have a baby quilt which I was in the procsss of throwing away (I thought it was a rag) and I felt that there was something in it as I threw it into a discard pile (after my mother died). It was a cloth doll, complete but w/o any clothes made for it... I know that my mother made it for me for Christmas in 1945 but suddenly the war was over and Montgomery Ward's catalog again had such things as dolls, and she put this away and bought me my doll! The doll was wrapped in a cross stitched blanket her grandmother had made for her; my mother was named after her grandmother (Louisa Ann Conner), who was highly respected in her area in the later 1800 (and into early 1900). It was in a museum in La Conner, Washington, for a bit. And I had thrown it away!!!!!

I love feedsack quilts. Yours is beautiful and I'm glad you got it! My mom made one from some she found in my grandma's attic. It's used just as much as the other quilts in the living room, but it has held up the best so far. She also made a feedsack Halloween costume made from one of the feedsacks from the feed mill my grandma's cousin owned (they had the farm, cousins had the mill) for me to use at my school's harvest festival, still have it, but it don't fit so well anymore

What a special gift! My grandparents were all dead bythe time I was born so I am very jealous of those who knew and/or have things passed down to them.

Thank you so much for sharing your story and beautiful GM's quilt.

What a wonderful quilt to cherish and hand down to future generations. If it doesn't have a label, perhaps adding a label, saying what you have told us to date the quilt and have the story to go with it.
