Coordinated hankies make very sexy aprons. I saw a demo and they were very cute.

Count me in for some of the hankies or towels when you decide to give some of them up. I am sure I could find something worth trading.:)

I just finished some little girls that hankies were used for the skirts. They are precious. Let me know if you would like the info about them.

I am asking againif you would be able to depart with 12-24 of the beautiful hankerchiefs. I have been wanting to make my daughter a quilt from these for years. I can't seem to find enough and my grandkids destroyed the ones I did have.

These are the little girl hankies I made. I had to cut the hankies for my purpose but they are going to be framed not used. The actual pattern called for using the whole hankie but since my designs were on the corners it was not possible. These will be given to my mother's great granddaughters for
Christmas.

This is the pattern used.

I've found a pattern to use old hankies and make them into butterfly blocks to quilt. I'm still collecting old hankies in good shape they are hard to find. I'm always popping into antique shops to look. Can't wait to see what you come up with.
