Note : You can make the tail area narrower by making the fold deeper.
You can also applique them in a random display on a large background instead of doing the sereate blocks.

What size are the hankerchiefs you are using? - Just beautiful

I'm not sure, they are ladies hankies that I have had for many years, they were given to me. They might be 8 to 10 inches, not a perfect square. I will try to measure some later & post it.
