I am trying to find new feed sacks or feed sack fabric? to make dish towels to embroider. I'd like to find them in a natural solid color. I thought I saw some in Wal-Mart once. Can't remember. Can't seem to locate any. Does anyone know where I can buy them or order them. Thanks for any help with this. Tracy |

I received my flour sack towels and am not sure I will keep them. Plan to wash and dry one this evening to see if threads(weave) will pull closer together and look heavier. I compared them to some vintage ones I have and they are not the same quality. Will let you know tomorrow. |

Thanks everyone for your help on this! Flour sacks....not feed sacks! What was I thinking? I immediately contacted the online store Georgann mentioned and ordered them in addition to their 400 thread count pillowcases for $5.00 a pair! I order 4 pr. to embroider. I'll let you know what it all looks like when I receive it. Denise, I had already placed my order before I read the rest of the posts. What size and color are your towels. The ones I ordered only came in white. Thanks, Tracy |

I bought a pack of WM ones...they are pretty flimsy...
IF you decide to buy them there, I found them in the kitchen towel area.
There's a K-Mart 45 mins away...I will have to check out theirs the next time I drive down there.

Do NOT, I repeat do NOT buy them from walmart, they are horrible, like gauze, and are really trying my nerves trying to embroidery them. Just yuck!
I haven't tried them yet, but I would bet that Aunt Martha's would be better quality. They sell them at their site colonialpatterns.com and also at Hobby Lobby, and Hancock's. |

Our Walmart has them. They call them Flour Sack Towels. They are like 5 for $5.00. I'll look next time I go there.
Here is an online source. Don't know anything about this company.
