Did she change her mind after seeing what a beautiful job you did of preserving the treasures for all to enjoy?? I sure would have. No use keeping it folded and hidden away when it could shine like these beauties do. Congratulations on a terrific job. Wish I had some to share with you.
Blessings.

they are both beautiful... :thumbup: :thumbup:

What a wonderful keepsake. I LOVE it!

Beautiful! I have 50 hankeys of my mom's you have given me some great ideas.

I wanted to say thank you everyone so very, very much for all your lovely comments. I appreciate them all so much!!

My Aunt loved the quilts once they were made but still didn't agree with cutting them up.

I did feel as if I were creating an heirloom... the hankies were already heirloom to me so I simply arranged them so they could be enjoyed everyday instead of tucked away.

Thank you again!

Very nice and something I have never seen before! Thanks for sharing.

I inherited several beautiful hankies from my grandmother. They are way too beautiful to actually use (can you imagine blowing your nose on these?). I have always cherished them and now I know what to do with them to keep them safe and still be able to appreciate them. I also have one from a great aunt that is so fragile I never even open it. I wonder if I could make it into a wall hanging?

Very very beautiful!

Your quilts are beautiful. I took a class at the Road to CA show this last Jan. from Cindy Brick. She is a great teacher. I made a "Hanky Panky" quilt in the class that I just love.

You have treasures that will be keepsakes forever!
Nice job!

Now I know what to do with all those hankies

How lovely!

Very pretty

Your quilts are beautiful.

Beautiful!

Dainty!

That would be very inspiring to take a class from her! Way
cool as the kids say.

How sweet they are. You did a wonderful job assembling the pieces to be so interesting.

Absolutely beautiful!! What size is it?

Lovely!

Is that ever gorgeous! I just love it!!

very beautiful!! I have some old hankies... I'm bookmarking this!
The quilts are really nice...

Love it! So very pretty.

Lori; My quilt measures 16.5 x 16.5 inches. My mom's was 18 x 18 inches.

I have been collecting more hankies for another quilt that I have found in Antique and 2nd hand stores. Unfortunately, so far I have found mostly white hankies. But... I know that this too could make a stunning quilt! I love these little quilts because they are so portable!! I love doing handwork when I am out and about waiting for appts. etc.
Thank you again everyone for so many kind comments. You have made my day (s). :-D

What a great way to preserve precious memories.

Brilliant!

You have done an outstanding work of true beauty. I love what you have done and the detail you put into it. :-D

How awesome, and what a way to Honor your mother and grandmother!

Very pretty and a nice memory. I wish I had more hankies I only have a few. Sue

Beautiful!

It turned out just beautiful!

Where do you find the hankies to use in them? If I could make one that looked a hundredth as beautiful as these two... these are gorgeous! So delicate! And the memories contained in them! Great job!!!

Very nice!!!!

I love them. Now if I could get my hankies out of the bag and onto something so pretty as yours!

thae are all so lovely great job on all of them

Absolutely beautiful. I haven't seen anything like it. You did an amazing job on them.
