    Default gifts for my sister
    I wanted something special for my 74 year old sis.... I had some of grandma's handkerchiefs... mom only wore polyester... so used fusible web on the back and used her tops to complete basket and mug rug. I hope you enjoy seeing and it inspires. I love using clothes from loved ones for special projects.

    What a clever way to use those old hankies.
    Bet we could come up with a way to use old doilies, etc.

    They are so pretty, and very precious too. I am sure she will love them. You did a wonderful job with them.
