Upcycling this vintage Sunflower Flour sack into a cute tote bag makes me smile.
Is there anything that says "smile" better than a big sunflower?

I love taking the old, and creating something new, while retaining the character of what once was. The history of flour sacks is quite interesting. My mom actually had to wear dresses made from used flour sacks, as a child. It was quite an amazing resource!

I like to call this an eco-chic sack, and I have used a logo feedsack to create the outside of the tote, and used leftover flour sack fabric for the lining.

The tote measures 12 inches tall and 12 inches wide, strap about a 16 inch drop when carried over shoulder. Since it is a petal tie strap, it can be adjusted. There is a large pocket inside, and the outside pocket is full width of the bag measuring 12" x 6".

In the photos, my good friend "Molly Model" is providing you a size perception. :)
