She used them. One of them, but I can't remember which one, was all crumpled up in the pocket of the dress I wore to her funeral. All of us girls wore one of her denim dresses.
I remember my father carrying a hankie (though not a pretty one like these). After he passed away, my mother gave me a few to keep. I think they remind me of the comfort he gave ....

Hello!
ReplyDeleteOh, those are so pretty!! I love to carry hankerchiefs and pick them up at the antique store. They don't make them like that anymore, do they?
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteDid your mom collect them, or use them / carry them?

Oooh, how pretty! I love old hankies also. My mom still uses them ... Kleenex seem wasteful to her. Do you have them out as decor somewhere?
