On the hunt for old grain sacks (burlap or hemp) with that great oatmeal color-logo's are okay, but no prints and in any condition! Willing to pay good price!
Talk to me ladies.....
Thank you!!

Hi Mel,
I have some, I will put one in with your honey. They are like your picture except with a blue stripe or no stripe at alland you might have to creatively cut around a few patched spots or small frays. They were rescued from my mother-in-laws trash pile awhile back.

Laura, Are they "course" or more fabric like? If they are more fabric like I would love to have them. Just let me know....

Nope, mine is definitely the coarse kind. Glad you posted the picture. I've seen pillows like that in just about every decorating magazine over the years, but I've never seen feedsacks like that out in the world. Love the look, good luck finding sacks! |

I have a couple of burlap sacks that beans came in. They are from a Navajo coop and they might have that logo on them but not sure. They aren't as big as a feed sack. I will look at them tomorrow and get measurements. I could send them to you for the shipping if you decide you can use them.

I'm looking for the plain ones.... not floral--Is the sack a soft burlap? or the course kind? I'd like to make pillows from the fabric. I'll try posting a photo.
Thanks!

Does it have to be grain sacks? I've got a large burlap sack that once held (according to the graphic) 100 pounds of "Pioneer" potatoes grown in Wisconsin. Or are you looking for the more floral cotton sort of feedsacks that people used to make dresses from? |
