Grain Sack Love
I went all week without a post.
Not because I didn't have time...
but because I didn't have anything to post about.
I promised from the very beginning
that I would never waste your time with
a post that said nothing.
But that all changed this afternoon
when I got my mail.
Just look what came...
I won 3 Vintage European Grain Sacks
earlier in the week on eBay.
Here's #1.
Moving on to #2.
And my personal favorite...#3.
They are thick and in excellent condition.
I really didn't pay a fortune for them either.
Now that I've seen them in person,
I think I got a great deal.
I'm definitely in love.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend.
Enjoy the warm weather if you are in the Midwest.

Here's a peek at the latest items added to my Etsy Shop.

Those are fabulous, I love the red one. I bought mine off etsy from grainsaks (I think thats her shop name) I can't wait to see what you do with em.
Beautiful, Ann, and your pillows look great, too! Sometimes you just gotta share those little things that bring happiness into our lives! : )
I know you'll make some awesome pillows out of those grain sacks! Your pillows are gorgeous!
Oh my hearts is beating fast now that I see your new grain sacks! Today must've felt like Christmas! I love them. What are you planning on doing with them? Love the pillows that you're listing on Etsy too. I'm going to stop in and look around.
Great sacks. I love the red one, too. I guess you are making things with them. Love your cute new pillows.
Love your grain sacks and they look like really nice quality. The red one is my favorite too. Have a great weekend,

Just delicious fabric. Can't wait to see what you do with it all.
oh I like! They really look in good shape. Enjoy!
Those are great! Can't wait to see what you do with them. Maybe you'll work faster with your stuff than I have mine. My fabric is still sitting in the same place. But I've been sick all week. I adore your ruffled pillows and the toile pillow too!
Those are fabulous!! I am envious...
Hugs,

Looks like a great buy to me!! I saw the same type in Round Top, Texas last week for over $50 each. I drooled and passed by. Sally

Your grain sacks are wonderful, Ann, what are you planning on making with them? Your pillows are lovely!

You'll have fun with those sacks!
I have to take a blog break now and again when I run out of inspiration, or just get tired. The nice thing is that one bounces back when the time is right.
I can't wait to see what you do with these. The things in your shop are lovely.
Hope you are well. What will you do with those sacks?
Ann your pillows are looking great on Etsy!!! Will you be making pillows out of your new grain sacks? Can't wait to see your creative mind at work. I a back to blogging after a wonderful visit from two blogging friends this past week, oh what fun we had, so I was gone from blog land also!!! Sometimes a break is a good thing, it gets our creative juices flowing again!! Happy weekend, Kathysue
I love those ruffles.
Thanks for taking the time to give advice to new bloggers. Now I will be able to add a button and a few other things that I was wondering how to do. Maybe you can check it out at mrshinesclass.wordpress.com
I'm looking forward to following your blog. Thanks again for the advice. I'm going to put it to good use. Wish me luck!
Oh Me Likey!! Those are beautiful grain sacks. Can't wait to see what you do with them.
OK!
Now I feel like I am all caught up, Ann! Love these grain sacks, cannot get enough of these. Just bought a few recently... love the weave and the history of the pieces.
The gourds are great. Love the striped carved one. So cool!
And finally, your kitchen and fall arrangments are gorgeous!!!
So pretty.
