Item 35: 2 flour sacks

These flour sacks are made of a heavy cotton. Stores would sell flour (or wheat perhaps) in sacks and people would make clothing out of the sacks. So the companies started selling their product in patterned sacks. People would use them as pillow cases, or make dresses for children, or other things from the cloth.

There are 2 of these sacks, in the same pattern. They are about 28 inches long by 18.5 inches wide. Just let me know if you want one or both. I think the detailed picture shows a bit more blue than the actual cloth. It is more of a purple shade.
