I have some hankies that I have saved over the years that I would trade. I was going to make a butterfly quilt years ago when I saw it in a magazine (I think I still have the magazine.) But my priorities have changed. Hankies are hard to find nowadays. The ones I have came from a thrift store. You almost have to hunt antique shops and flea markets to find them and then they are expensive.

TanyaL, thanks for that info. My mom used hankies but they were only the bright prints. Guess she didn't know the rules, LOL. My grandma had fancier ones, but used old cut up shirts for every day. She was very frugal.
