I vaguely remembered ordering something a long time ago.
Normally pretty frugal, I sometimes splurge. And, look!
It's my book wrapped in a real flour sack!
Cousin Katha, I immediately thought of you! You'd love it!
And inside ... amazing!
If you don't know about UPPERCASE magazine,
it is a beautiful high-end, pricey, no ads, quarterly magazine.
I was lucky to be published in it, & now subscribe.

Feed Sacks: The Colorful History of a Frugal Fabric
WRITTEN BY LINZEE KULL MCCRAY
Feed sacks are the perfect example of a utilitarian product turned into something beautiful. Author Linzee Kull McCray explores the history of the humble feed sack, from a plain burlap or cotton sack to exuberantly patterned and colorful bags that were re-purposed into frocks, aprons and quilts by thrifty housewives in the first half of the 20th century
Isn't that the best?
When you've ordered something but forgot & so it's like a gift!
