Garden Twist Accessories - Hankie Pillow
One of my FB groups had postings on hankie quilts. I only had 1 hankie, so I made it into a pillow to match my Garden Twist bedroom set. The back is a fussy cut of the bouquet fabric. Like how it turned out. Now I have to find more hankies to make a quilt, wallhanging??

when I go to estate sales I keep my eyes open for hankies. I saw a box and just that quickly another gal snatched it up. She bought the whole box. She was kind enough to let me drool a little. Some of the most beautiful I've seen in a long time. Similar to yours and others with lace tatted edges and cutouts. A gorgeous black (for mourning) with black lace. She got the whole box for $10.00. It was an 8x8x8 box and packed full. So try estate sales. Men's hankies are great for backing on pillows.
