This is a very pretty feed sack – white background covered with blue rosebuds with green stems and leaves!

Feed sack has been opened and measures 36 ½” x 40”. It has been laundered by prior owner(s) and has the softness that only cotton attains with laundering.

Feed sack has some flaws – it has a ½” hole located 2” from edge and a larger 5 ½” tear located 2 ½” from edge...

Gorgeous vintage trim in this listing! It’s hand crochet, measures 3 1/3 yards long, 3 ½” wide, and is in excellent condition.

This feed sack is very colorful with a pretty pattern!

Feed sack has been incorrectly opened – I’m not certain how it occurred but it has an almost diagonal type seam/opening resulting in a “non-square”. It measures 47 ½” long and 38” wide but remember it’s not even/square.

Do not be deterred – this is a very pretty piece of vintage fabric...

I’ve grouped these two sewing items into one listing -- there’s a neat vintage tatting shuttle and a vintage thimble!

The shuttle is green plastic and was made by “The Boye Needle Co, Chicago”. It’s in very good condition with some places that appear to have been caused by a hot needle – probably by someone (not me!) checking to see if it was Bakelite -- it’s not.

The thimble is stamped “10, Germany”...

These are neat vintage patterns -- there are two Simplicity patterns and one Butterick!

The Butterick pattern is size 16 (bust 36), one Simplicity pattern is also size 16 and the other is size 16 ½ (Half-size Slenderette)!

They have been used/cut but carefully handled, folded and stored in original envelope.

Thank you for visiting Lin's Antiques at Cyberattic!

Shipping for these patterns is via insured first class mail; cost will show when you add item to your shop...

This feed sack is a smaller size and probably contained flour or cornmeal when originally purchased!

Feed sack measures 25 ¼” long, 12” wide (has only been opened at the top). Unlike the larger feed sacks, this one has 2 side seams.

I have two of these feed sacks and both are in excellent condition...

This sampler is titled "Blue Onion" and is to be completed in shades of blue! The bottom of the material has "Columbia Minerva Corp." and the copyright date of 1972.

This listing has a somewhat unusual vintage feed sack – the pattern is of blocks of numbers and flowers! Feed sack measures 42” x 39”.

It is not in perfect condition and actually has the most imperfections of any of the feed sacks in our inventory. I have chosen to list it because it is such an unusual pattern and even with the flaws, there is a substantial amount of usable fabric...

Neat little pincushion that is similar to one shown on page 20 of “Sewing Tools and Trinkets” by Helen Thompson!

The one in book shows a bird on a whale’s tale while this one is a cute brown owl perched on a turtle’s head.

Made of glass and in very good condition...
