Kent Feedsack - Alice Cast in White

The second of the two feedsack patterns is called the March of the Cards in the CMD, but it contains a wide variety of characters from the entire film including Alice, the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, the Card Soldiers, a Rocking Horse Fly, Bread and Butter Flies, the White Rabbit, the Queen of Hearts, the King of Hearts, a Baby Oyster, the Caterpillar as a butterfly, and a Daisy from the Garden of Live Flowers.  Quite an all-star cast, that's what I'll call it as the selvage does not list a pattern name.
This particular color and pattern combination is the only one in which I have both flour sacks and feed sacks.  The flour sack is a tight dense weave
whereas the feedsack is a looser more open weave.  Hopefully you can see the differences in these comparative images.
I must say Alice looks fairly demented with her pink eyes and green lips.
