It used to be that a lot of women in Negril sewed so all they needed was the material and they banged them out. Not sure if flour in JA is even handled in cloth sack as back in the old days. If the sack clothing could be found in JA most likely in Kingston at Devon House Shops.

Maybe they could use rice sacks, but they might be a little sweaty? I think they are that plastic burlap stuff.
Have never seen anything like this in the few years I have been here!Originally Posted by Gwhizman
My first memory of Negril is buying a Flour sack shirt from a road side
vendor (down by Ms Mary's) wore it until i fell apart. Anyone know
of a local that still makes them?
Example:
I would so own 2 or 3 of these!!
