    This is gorgeous! I am also new to the Quilting Board and to quilting, but when I saw this beautiful quilt, I wanted to tell you about the box of my grandmother's embroidered handkerchiefs I have been holding for years waiting for the right use. Thank you so much, now I have something to aspire to if I can ever reach this point!

    I can see why it was worth it! Absolutely beautiful. I so want to do this with my moms old hankies but am waiting till I am better at applique. Thank you for the great inspiration.

    What a cute idea. I have seen quilts using the hankies for ladies dresses but I like this better.
