Welcome from southeastern Michigan! 8-) I agree with sewcrafty. I'm sure I have seen something on the board about using hankies. :wink:

Try this one.

The pattern is in an old magazine that had all butterfly patterns. I'm at work so will look tonight. It will probably take me a few days to find--I have several boxes of old mags that I'm keeping for my retirement--ha ha.! I too started making butterflies with old hankies. I think I collected enough to make an all blue hankie/butterfly quilt and another with different colored hankies--so pretty.

I see that "up north" posted a link so I won't have to look. I guess I should get back to work.!

I am now in the process of finishing a queen size 25th Ann quilt made of linen tatted/ crocheted ladies hankies and napkins. I have machine embroidered lovely flowers and initials in the middle of most . They do not all come out even around the edge so I added lace where needed. So many are delicate and thin so hand tacked at corners and inconspicious places onto white backing. Now I have tied the entire top/batting /backing with white embroidery thread. Lots of work but for a lovely daughter. I also addedsome small crochet dolies made by my mother and a tatted hankie from her other grandma...it is a real work of memories

I have the magazine with the handkerchief butterfly pattern you're looking for but I also saw it advertized for sale in the Quitler's World newsletter this week - go to quiltersworld.com or [email protected] to see latest patterns and books on offer

I have seen these in a ook somewhere......
Will try to think where
