This is slightly off your question, but I just recently posted a finished quilt from my friend Janice - she made a whole quilt featuring hankies. There is also a tutorial about how to fold the hankies into a dress shape. Here are the links if you are interested:

I had never seen anything like it before, and I think Janice really did a nice job! It just might interest you ~smile~
