    Those are simply wonderful. I really like the way you used several hankies in each piece. What treasures! I always stop and look at the hankies in the antique stores. So much beauty was put into them-not at at all in modern times. I know your work will be appreciated by the family members who receive them.

    These runners are lovely. I have a few hankies but not enough for a quilt, so maybe some day I will try my hand at a runner.

    Oh my, what a beautiful use of those heirloom hankies. You did a beautiful job of preserving them . I hope you put a label on the back. It would be worth the time. I just love them. What a great inspiration.
