My Favorite Feedsacks

Dolly is my favorite. I had a little feedsack doll like her in the late 40's and early 50's. After I joined the Feedsack Club with Jane Clark Staple and others during the summer of 1993 (my first Switches and Swatches newletter was July, August, 1993) I put out a request for the members to help me find another Dolly. One sent me Dolly printed on a feedsack and also a half sack with the Christmas reindeer. I sent her a Kents Cloth of the United Nation and another sack for trade. I made the little quilt with some pretty juvenile prints and the feedsack plaid red, green, blue, and white tie for the old teddy bear. He was with my mother in the nursing home when she passed away. He brought her lots of comfort in her last days. She called him "Jackson". This photo appeared in Country Woman magazine a few years back with photos by some of the other Feedsack Club members.
