    I, too, have hankies from my Grandmother and my M-in-Law and would love to have the pattern for the butterflies. Can you tell us where we can find the pattern? Your quilt is beautiful.

    I have many such hankies but can't bear to use them in a quilt or wall hanging.

    I would love to see a closeup of your work. I have many vintage hankies and thought of doing this. did you back the hankies with muslin to reinforce them?
