Hankies are something I've begun to use in lieu of Kleenex when I can, when I remember, it seems like A Good Thing To Do, (using something reusable not something disposable) but also, they tend to be just so beautiful and cute!
I have a large collection of cute ones inherited from my Mom and my Grandma, some from my Mom's childhood; little illustrated fairy-tale and nursery-rhyme hankies, and some white linen ones that have been hand-embroidered and edged with hand-made lace (made by my Grandma...a long time ago!). And because the designs I've been admiring on these hankies are so varied and so beautiful, I have been inspired to make up some of my own, again to someday be printed at Spoonflower if I create a nice little collection of them which could then be printed on a yard or two of very thin fabric (the 'Cotton Voile' one!).
Here is the first one, depicting some lovely beets!! And a variety of edging colors/ choices and background color options...if you're out there reading this, and have an opinion...let me know which one(s) you like the look of!
