Hey farmgals, I need some help.
I had an idea yesterday to design my own feedsack. Now I need to know what size to cut it.
I printed it for a 25 lb sack but I could use a size for a 50 lb sack as well.
It doesn't show up but I used the name of my settlement as the milling company name: DeCamp Milling Co. DeCamp ILL. It really was a coal mining town in the early 1900.

Could someone measure one of their feedsacks that they have so I can get the correct size? I could use 25, 50, or even 100 lb weight. I want to make personalized feedsacks.

I don't have any feed sacks but have flour sacks. They are for 20-25 pounds of flour and measure roughly: 25" L X 14" wide. Great idea Lynn Marie :)

 That's what I meant, flour sacks. Thanks for coming to my rescue Sharon.

Mine arrived today and the measurement for 25lb sack is 25"L X 14" unfinished they are folded in half length wise and sewen on one side with approx. 1/2" seam so finished is 25"l X 131/2"w. So for 50lb I would double the length.
Do you sell flour? Very smart idea and your label is neat too.

No Carrie I do not sell flour but there was a thread about flour sacks so I thought it would be fun to design the logo and make my own personalized sacks.
Thanks for the measurement.
