One of my aunts would send me a new handkerchief in a card every year for my birthday and I've kept them all. My grandmother would never have used Kleenex so she had scads of handkerchiefs as did my mother. I am so thankful that I have them and I want to have them displayed where they can be enjoyed. What better way than a quilt.

Now that sounds cool. I'll have to look that up.

What pretty quilts!

I'm fixing to start on a hankie's quilt myself. I finally found a a pattern on ROSE COTTAGE QUILTS web-site and you don't have to cut up your hankies. Several patterns to choose from. I'm doing the "simply Hankies Two" pattern

I have some of my MIL's. That would make a lovely thing to have of hers now that she's gone. Thanks for the inspiration.
