All these bags give me a case of the I wants. So I guess I should get to sewing. My favorite grain bag will never be cut though, but we may have some old flour sack that are heavy duty enough to work.

The repairs are always one of my favorite things on vintage fabrics.

The bags are lined with mattress tick.


Made from German Grain Bags from Tamara Loves Leather via Jamaica Byles.
