now that I have your attention... lol!
I have to tell you,,, the "Hanky Panky" article on page 13 of the MJF magazine is just to cute...

I use to photo copy hankies with a white center,,, and then use the photo copy as stationary... it was so sweet,,, but in all honesty,, I haven't done any in several years,,, so I think I will dig through my boxes of hankies and find the perfect one to copy and then use it as stationary and write a sweet letter to my dear friend back in Tulsa, OK...

Thanx MJF.... for reminding me to get into some Hanky Panky...

Mary Jane, I took a quilt class called Hanky Panky by Cindy Brick. We used hankies and other embellishments to make them. We swapped pieces of hankies with each other for the colors we wanted. Cindy wrote a book about it. Such fun!

Gracie,
You could write me a "Hanky Panky" letter too! I like purple, pink, red, teal . . . . (hint, hint)

Saw this Article. Cute Ideas. My problem is I love all my Hankies and don't want to use
them for anything. They are so pretty!!! One of my few collections I have kept.

Hugs and smiles,
Peggy

PeggyAnn,,, me too! unless they are damaged I just hate to cute them up... that's why I luv photo copying them..
and you can take a sweet photo copy of a hanky,,, transfer it onto fabric... and then not feel guilty using it for crafting..
I have a luv affair with hankies and vtg. linens....

I'm always disappointed in the stationery section of the store. Photocopying my hankies (I have hundreds by now) is brilliant! Thanks for the idea.

If your dream doesn't scare you to death......it's not big enough.

fold in half....(because of the design, I folded it length wise...

then fold in 1/2 again...

instant sweet note card or gift tag...

If you have a hanky that has a border print, where the center is plain,, this gives you a better 'writing area'..
or you can just print 1/2 of the hanky so that when you fold it,,, the inside will be blank.
No matter, they are super cute!
