~ Hello and welcome to The Textile Trunk! ~ Please visit us on Instagram: @textiletrunk ~

Here's some quick information about the features of this wonderful grain sack:

STRIPE COLOR(S) : This stripe is VERY rare as it's hand embroidered! I've never seen another like it! Purple chain stitch! GORGEOUS hand stitched sides and top! I LOVE this sack

MEASUREMENTS: 23 inches wide by 38 inches long (it's double sided, so if using for cutting there are 2 panels that measure this!)

CIRCA AGE: Early 1900's / late 1800's

TONE: Pale, warm natural tone!

TEXTURE: SOFT, floppy and wobbly!! Very springy linen ~ just wonderful!!!! Lovely textural surface

CONDITION: I've freshly laundered this lovely sack and it's ready to use! There are some pale stains on this sack that didn't fully wash! This sack is imperfect because of the stains , so please consider this sack for cutting or sewing projects ~ One side is good the other is stained, so I'm selling this sack only for the good side! ( condition reflected in the price)

Item Number: 42K



GENERAL GRAIN SACK order INFORMATION: Grain sacks were hand-woven and used for storing grains! The stripe on the grain sack indicated which family farm it belonged to and ensured that the miller returned the sack to its rightful owner. These sacks were meant to stand the test of time! They are 100% machine washable, over and over and over. These durable textiles are ideal for upholstery projects, pillow cover, bath mats, table runners, dog beds, curtains, lampshades, and even outdoor use (hemp is naturally mold and mildew resistant). I love knowing that by virtue of their age, these textiles were grown without the use of pesticides. Wonderful organic fabric for natural living!
