From feed sacks to fashion, join us for a fascinating presentation as Louise Baker explores the incredible story of how everyday cotton bags were once used to package flour, sugar, feed, and meal and then transformed into clothing and household items by resourceful homemakers from across America.

Whether you’re a history buff, a vintage fashion lover, or just curious about the past, this is a talk you won’t want to miss.
