A few people asked if I would post my Handkerchief Quilts that I made. Thank you sew much for asking! The hankies are from my Mom & Grandma. I made a quilt for my Mom and myself. The quilt with the bow at the bottom corner is mine. The ribbon and buckle were from dresses I wore in High School to Prom and Homecoming... with my then boyfriend, now hubby of 44 years!
With the exception of sewing the binding strips on, they are 100% stitched by hand with that LOVELY Silk thread!! I am hooked on this stuff!! I loved making these so much, I have been collecting pretty hankies for a few years now to create at least one more.
Thank you for asking me to share my Handkerchief Quilts.. the idea came from the book, 'Hanky Panky' by Cindy Brick.
