I've been saving & adding to my collection - not quite enough for the quilt I want to make but someday...

Beautiful quilting job by the way!

Could you please tell us how the hankies are fastened to the quilt blocks? Are they sewn down with a fancy stitch or a zig zag stitch, etc?

She used an almost satin stitch. Not quite as tight as usual.
