This is a hankie that I made for the family when my husband's uncle died. I was unable to get out and purchase the hankies so made them from batiste that I had at home, serged the edges, and did the embroidery.

That is lovely and so was your idea to comfort the grieving family.

What size did you make this. I think it is just great.

I did 10 1/2" squares. I had never done them before, and have not done them since. But, thinking about doing special guest towels this way.

Beautiful job, I am sure the family will keep this as a memento to your husband's uncle. Nice tribute to him. Lovely font, do you remember where you got it from

Yes, the design is from Heirloom Alphabet by Martha Pullen, from the Husgvarna designs collection, embroidery 9. I had it for a while, but never really used it. I thought it really looked nice, so used it.
Thank you dlonna, for answering that - I have come back a couple times - hoping you would - ove that font - pretty work.
