sherone_13	Posted - Jan 13 2016 : 11:08:00 AM I found a fun article on ways to repurpose hankies. It seems I always find a plethora of these at estate sales and wonder what I could do with them. Well here ya go....... http://www.faithtap.com/5432/adorable-ways-to-repurpose-vintage-hankies/?v=1 Sherone Farmgirl Sister #1682 My Blog www.annapearlsattic.blogspot.com My Etsy www.etsy.com/shop/annapearlsattic My Avon www.youravon.com/sheronetaylor Women are angels. When someone breaks our wings, we just jump on our broomsticks and fly! We are flexible that way!

atkinst2	Posted - Jan 19 2016 : 07:36:59 AM Thanks everyone. I know I love that pattern. Am currently working on a whole clothe but when I'm done with it I am starting this one. There is never a road so long that there isn't a curve in it.

atkinst2	Posted - Jan 16 2016 : 6:13:27 PM I have all of my grandmothers and mother in laws and aunts hankies. Here is a picture of a quilt block. It is on my to do list to make a quilt out of them. There is never a road so long that there isn't a curve in it.
ceejay48	Posted - Jan 15 2016 : 11:51:15 AM So far, I'm not ready to cut up most of my hankies yet! I have used some on some of my "Linens and Lace Collage" aprons, but I had purchased them just for that purpose. We'll see . . .

Bonnie Ellis	Posted - Jan 14 2016 : 8:45:10 PM Another way is to make a crazy quilt. Cindy Brick wrote a book called "Hanky Panky" a number of years ago and I took a class from her. We made a pillow-sized quilt out of hankies, trims, buttons, lace etc. What fun! grandmother and orphan farmgirl

KristiW	Posted - Jan 14 2016 : 09:04:10 AM It's always a great idea to grab those vintage hankies whenever you can because there are so many cool ideas for using them nowadays. Megan celebrated vintage hankies in the Oct/Nov 2015 issue of the magazine and it was delightful to work with all the beautiful colors and far-out prints! Kristi Farmgirl Sister #6
