Hi, That's interesting. Hadn't thought about sacking of any sort, but that would fit. However, the original shirt that the kid loves was manufactured by someone purchasing large quantities, probably at wholesale. There were a lot of pieces made of this fabric at the vendor's booth. If I found the vendor, I'd be tempted to buy him another shirt, just because I know he'd like and wear it. However, I really don't want to spend over $50 for a shirt if I can help it.
I'll have to try some new googles, based on sacking - see what comes up. Thanks for the hint.

Sometimes thes old pieces show up at fairs or garage sales.
