I have beautiful embroidered flour sack towels from my farmgirl sister's, my question is "how do I wash them".

Mine go in with the whites, hot water, warm rinse and hot dryer. Been doing it this way for 39 years and my mother has done it this way for 70 years. Never had the colors run or fade or had shrinkage issues. I usually iron them too with a iron set on cotton which is the hot setting. I might also add that I have had some of my flour sack towels for over 30 years, some of them just don't wear out.

Well, I wash mine like I wash the rest of my towels except I do them on the gentle cycle.

O, a trouble's a ton or a trouble's an ounce,
Or a trouble is what you make it!
And it isn't the fact that you're hurt that counts,
But only--how did you take it?
