Letter 21

First, here are the study questions.

1. Why did many American women during this time use old flour sacks to make clothing for their families?
Because the bags are cheap, since it is just a bag that use to carry flour, and you can make a lot of clothes at a low price.
2. How did the flour and animal feed companies try to take advantage of this practice?
The flour and animal feed companies tried to take advantage of this practice by marketing the flour bag. They may include patterns or instructions on the bag.

3. What were some of the reasons for the decline in popularity of the “flour sack” dresses?
The sack clothing aren’t as fashionable as the ones at the stores and that schools are no longer giving required classes on how to make them.

Actually, fun fact: I was in a fashion design club in middle school, because I was super obsessed with designing and creating clothes, I was so destined to be a fashion designer, but then when I turned 15, I decided that I was more interested in becoming a flight attendant!
