When I buy grainsacks, it’s often for my shop, but when I come across monogrammed ones, I never sell them. I just don’t. They are too hard to come by and so perfect to use as a pillow or to upholster something. Just look at the settee below. That was upholstered with a vintage monogrammed grainsack.
This grainsack didn’t come with a monogram, so we added one before I added it to this antique fireplace screen. See how much the monogram makes it pop?
I found some grainsacks with a monogram and no stripes. And there was a pair of them, so I used it on two matching antique French chairs.
The monogram really stands out on the chairs.
Here I used one grainsack for a pillow on the chair and draped the other one across the ottoman.
So… this brings me to two announcements.
The first one is that I am parting with a few of my monogrammed grainsacks and they are on sale! I only have one of each.
Hi! Can you please tell me where to purchase those beautiful blue snd white round pillows? I adore them! Thank you.
Anita, I truly appreciate all the treasures I’ve purchased from you! I can only imagine how much time that one aspect of your business takes up. I’m glad you’re going to free up some time that way. Smart move for you, your family, and ME! Now we have time to visit each other! LOL!!!

Excited to hear about your new changes, a little sad that i was not able to purchase from you yet, even though I still have some time.I so enjoy listening to the podcast…I have been listening but i have not been leaving any comments , because I have been listing on my phone . Listening in marathon style, they are all very informative and most all of enjoyable….
Love the grainsacks and how you have used them, beautiful!
I especially like the grainsack use on the ottoman–great result…..
I purchased blue and white ticking fabric from you several yards, can’t remember right now.LOL But do you by chance have any left on the bolt? Would love more to match. Loved your shop also but I do know
how time consuming it can be and you can only do 12 things at a time. At least my children have always
told me that and I do love your blog and pod casts. Thank you
