Depends if the hankie will be worn in a jacket pocket--and that doesn't happen much anymore--I don't think.? Anyway, I think it has always pointed toward the center.

I would do it just like I would a napkin, in the corner.

On a handkerchief I always do facing the ........( men or women), well I added this picture that's easier....to see what I mean:

A picture paints a thousand words.............or something like that! Spot on Gerry although, personally, I wouldn't go for the flowers for a bloke.
what a lovely hankie Gerry thank you for sharing. I am going to do them like this too but with monogrammed initials thank you Hugs Loralye
haha Dennis this was for a very sweet lady :)
My handkerchiefs are all very old and designs(men or ladies) all point toward outside just like in your picture. some are the finest Irish linen of it's day. .
I think my head must be on backwards :) I'd call this example pointing inwards towards the centre :)

does the bobbin thread have to match like fsl. I am doing monogram in black.

I did the bobbin in the color of the hankie. good luck :)
I'd base that answer as depending how well your machine behaves, particularly when doing lettering. A lot of machines need a fine tension adjustment with lettering to make sure the bobbin thread stays below the fabric.

For a man I would point it inward and for a lady outward. Susan

Thanks for the question and thank you all for the answers. I didn't know the answer to this and will be using this information for this Christmas.
