Default gifts for my sister
I wanted something special for my 74 year old sis.... I had some of grandma's handkerchiefs... mom only wore polyester... so used fusible web on the back and used her tops to complete basket and mug rug. I hope you enjoy seeing and it inspires. I love using clothes from loved ones for special projects.

What a clever way to use those old hankies.
Bet we could come up with a way to use old doilies, etc.
