So nice to see both of you here...Sandi and Carrie,<br /><br />So nice to see both of you here at my kitchen table!! Thanks for your kind words about the table runners. They were fun to make; it was really neat, once I had located some applique designs, to decide just how to arrange them on the squares. It was fun coordinating the colors from my fabric stash with the colors on the vintage hankies. I still have a bunch of those to use up and think I may make "Hankie Blankies" -- a Gooseberry Patch project.<br /><br />Come back and visit anytime!Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-23714739092000137462014-06-25T22:09:51.353-04:002014-06-25T22:09:51.353-04:00Your runner was such a wonderful idea and turned o...Your runner was such a wonderful idea and turned out so beautifully!

I have similar valances (using cloth napkins) in some of our rooms, but the tree branch is an even nicer idea and I might think about doing that with some of the remaining hankies for summer.

Finally did use 6 of them as a valance over my kitchen windows, which i love. I simply took a thin, straight limb from a tree, stripped it of bark and sanded it, cut two "crooks" of tree and drilled/nailed them to my window frame, layed the limb across and hung three hankies, overlapping each other, across the limb. They're light and airy. I"ve seen them in a baby's room or bath and they were cute also. Yours are incredible!syds1girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14472858941774155785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-76185277387354751812012-02-06T07:16:16.304-05:002012-02-06T07:16:16.304-05:00And Free Indeed, I didn't get your comment unt...And Free Indeed, I didn't get your comment until later (even though it somehow showed up before my reply) ~ it is nice to see you here again and I'm glad my project could inspire some ideas for using your grandmother's hankies. It's fun and very satisfying to not only use these treasures but to pass them on to the younger generation this way.Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-87257452645508521092012-02-05T21:47:48.878-05:002012-02-05T21:47:48.878-05:00Ladies, thanks so much for stopping by to see my t...Ladies, thanks so much for stopping by to see my table runners.

I like the tea time theme and will look over my hankies; maybe a wall hanger for each of my children to pass on some heritage.free indeedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00945613713062219160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-72303398821810428132012-02-05T14:24:59.360-05:002012-02-05T14:24:59.360-05:00What a wonderful idea!
