I have been given handkies since I was a child (we all got them for Xmas in the fifties), and I have also picked up some embroidered ones for my collection in recent years. But apart from a few that are special to me, I am happy to offload them to other collectors, and some of the ladies on the Down To Earth forum have expressed interest in seeing what I have. So grab a cup of tea and have a look at the following photos :-)
I have indicated which ones I want to keep and which I am willing to part with. For the benefit of other readers of this blog, this offer is restricted to DTE members for now.
I will part with all the boxed sets except the men's handkies (my husband is in need of those, and I like the box!)
The photo below is of vintage handkie holders in my collection, which I will keep, but thought you might like to see them. The Dolly Varden handkies weren't with the holder, but I keep them in there.
These handkies (below) are ones that I would prefer to keep. I have a pattern for a quilt using handkies for the blocks, and I'm hanging on to these to choose from when the time comes.
