Oh my goodness! I’m so overdue posting. Was having trouble with my IPad. Anyway, CJ’s lovely package was AMAZING! I hope my package to you brought the joy that I got opening this package. From the pretty card to the beautiful vintage hankies, napkins, doily and pillowcases, everything is just so pretty. CJ thank you for putting together such a wonderful, package, I love it all, and thank you for hostessing such a fun swap.

Hi Janelle, so glad you received your hankie and I too received your package that you sent, sorry for not posting sooner ( I been out of town for a few days) I want to thank you so much for both hankies and I love the fabric you wrapped it in. I can always use that pretty fabric. Love the candy and hot chocolate too. Hopefully it will start to turn off a little cooler here by the end of the week, right now it still feels like summer here. Thank you so much for all the goodies.jpg?v 27986690)
Farmgirl Hugs & May all your Wishes come true.

Thank You, Brenda, for your hanky package! I really like the two hankies that you sent, the pretty blue rose from your mother's collection and the yellow floral from your elderly friend. Thank you for sharing them with me, along with the fun tucks included: handmade card, teas, owl stickers & paper crafts, pencils, magnifier, a quilted heart, and a fall apple tea towel. I will enjoy them all and think of your farm-girl friendship.
And thank you, CJ, for the ivory hanky with the delicate tatting. Thank you for being our host, and for sharing with all of us!
Best wishes,
Lee

Hi there Hankie Swappers,
As you can see I've been mailing hankies to each of you. I didn't mail them at the same time so you may have not gotten yours yet.
BUT, if you DO NOT receive your hankie from me . . PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE let me know. Because I REALLY want to make sure you get one from me!
Did I say "PLEASE"???
Thanks much!

I received the most beautiful delicate feminine Hankies I've ever owned from dear Bev! I'm afraid to take them out of their package along with the beautiful little linen pouch! The teas smell delightful and your card just beautiful as well! Thank you so very much for the beautiful package! I think I will just stare at it for a bit and enjoy its delicateness and beauty Bev! ;) hugs!!

CJ, a couple of years ago I sent Linda a set of quilt blocks my aunt had started working on. My aunt was making butterflies from hankies. I told Linda she could remove the hankies or do whatever with it. I could not bring myself to take apart what my aunt had attempted to do, although her skills were diminishing as she had worked on it. If she were here today she would be about 106. She died at about 95.

You girls are MOST WELCOME for the hankies! I have acquired quite a collection over the years and thought they should be shared! I have a "bunting" of some in my glamper trailer. I have several that were either my mother-in-law's or my late sister-in-law's hung from a ribbon across and above the closet in our bedroom . . . I see them every morning when I wake up. I also use them to decorate here and there, but still had many that were hidden away.
So . . . share them!
Enjoy!
