The hankie thing gives me an idea... I have a collection of hankies that were my grandmother's, some new ones, and about 50 vintage ones that I bought on eBay. I bet some of them would look great reproduced as full sized quilts.
I have an adorable child's hankie with a kitten in a nightgown carrying a candle in a holder with a duckie. How cute would that be as a baby quilt?
