Beautiful. Sent this to a friend who just lost her mom and has lots of hankies and doilies. Thanks for sharing an amazing work of art.

This is just beautiful. And to the lady that doesn't want to cut
them, I saw a pattern with for a quilt in a QUILTING NEWLETTER MAGAZINE THAT INTAILED FOLDING the hankies
so they fit on a plain colored fabric and it was just beautiful.
They were folded so they looked like butterflies.

Good luck

How beautifully creative you are. One may be able to just fold the hankies instead of cutting them, but either way it is a lovely, lovely quilt. So glad you shared them with us.

Nifty! A friend and I are always looking for hankie patterns as I have inherited about 100 of them!
