      I agree, I thought the quilt was beautiful but then you added the corner stones and it became outstanding!

  • @catherinelittle2118

    Beth, this is such a lovely quilt top using the vintage handkerchiefs. Your decision to sew each different sized hankie to a specific sized neutral background block brings a uniformity to the top. The eye sees a balance that is pleasing. A great idea. What a wonderful way to showcase pieces of history. Thank you for finding a creative method to save them and reuse them to be admired again years later. Each hankie is so delicately patterned like a piece of artwork. The best moment came when you added your finishing touch of the little cornerstone appliqued blocks placed on point. This was the moment when you turned what was quite a lovely top into something really exquisite. The hand stitched applique met the modern machine stitches and blended beautifully. These little blocks of vintage style fabric set off the vintage hankies in a remarkable way, somehow softening and at the same time coordinating, the larger blocks. What a terrific job you have done. Simply beautiful!

    I love this! I have some vintage "hankies" that were my mom's. They are well over 50 years old. So, this will be a soon to make project. As I am already 70 years old and my children don't seem to want much of my antiques or crafting things, I need to use some of my stuff for useable items. I know they like and need bedding... I'll just make this. Thank you for sharing your ideas. Blessings to y'all.

    I don't think I have enough to make a quilt top this big (using what handkerchiefs I still own). Most of mine are well used. Your quilt turned out very interesting and beautiful
    A new handkerchief was the perfect gift to give a teacher for Christmas when I was a child.. It was easy to fold one and tuck it in the envelope with the Christmas Card. Of course it was Mom who provided the hankerchiefs and cards (she had each of us sign the card, carry it to school, and place it under our classroom's real Christmas Tree for our teacher. I always wondered how many handkerchiefs my teachers owned. Everyone carried a handkerchief back then; because, there was no such thing as boxed tissues at that time. One of my favorite games, on the playground, was "Drop the Hankie." We were poor county children; but, everyone carried a hankie.

      Here’s a way to use fewer. I made a quilt with Lori Holt on one side for my mother’s 80th last year. The back side had a strip inserted vertically and I put a long panel of appliquéd hankies down the back. The hankies were from her mother and grandmother. She loves the hankies and dedication so much that it is the side she keeps upward on the bed so she can see them. The fabric I used on back for each side panel was Lori Holt’s hankie fabric. So fun to see Beth use the same method for a front, however the diamond cornerstones add so much!
