Author Message   Jenny Citizen Username: Jwasyliko Post Number: 12 Registered: 4-2006 Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 10:10 am:        I'd like to find & buy 3 - 10 burlap bags for a 5 year old sack race next week. Does anyone have any good suggestions? I'm too late to order them online. Millstone Garden only sells burlap on a roll, and the local coffee shops (of South Orange) were quite rude in telling me they didn't have any. I know I can use pillow sacks, but since our yard has a fair amount of wood chips, I'm afraid they'll get pretty torn up. As a last resort, I'll probably try paper sacks with handles from Whole Foods. Any help is appreciated!   Sherri De Rose Citizen Username: Honeydo Post Number: 227 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Tuesday, May 23, 2006 - 9:04 pm:        Why not buy the burlap by the roll and make the sacks? You'd only have to stitch up two sides and the kids might be able to do that with a big embroidery needle and some heavy yarn. Sounds like a good project.
