Success! I tried and tried to upload photos last night with no success. I so was in the mood to share these. They are hankerchiefs from my mom. She loved pretty hankerchiefs. I have a small box of them that she had kept through the years. The one above was one of the first ones I pulled from the box, and I must say one of my favorites.
The above and below are pretty, too. They all need washed and ironed but not sure they would last through a washing. I know some of them are at least 60 years old, and probably older. The fabric is sort of delicate. I remember looking at them as a child.
I do not know how many times I have looked in that box. I don't remember noticing the below clipping that she had saved. It was upside down is the only thing that I can think. The back did not have printing on it. Anyway, you should be able to read it if you click to expand the view.
I have no idea who wrote it...but I have only did a light search.

I made a couple of these blocks. They are going to be potholders. I just got to get busy and work on them....They are made from scraps except the light gray triangles. And I will use scraps of batting plus insulbrite for the padding. I usually use old jean denim for the backing but not sure I will on these.

I have a pot of navy beans and ham cooking...I have been so hungry for them. I am always glad to have something to cook that at least one of us wants.

I have a little video to share with you....I think you are going to love it.
