Issue 3 of The Sewing Cottage is out!!! Phew.
The Hankie Baby Quilt is one of the quilt patterns included and is this months free sewing pattern!
Snatch up Grandma’s Hankies and Vintage Sheets— you can whip this baby out in one evening. Promise.
There is a bit of hand stitching with super fat thread — if you want to….or go for the machine.
Don’t worry if there are a few stains or wholes….just gives it a bit of character.
Here it is hanging out with the Heirloom Doll {also included in the Current Issue}
Take a quick preview:

This is just perfect–quick, gorgeous, and using up some of my vintage linens! I already have ideas how I’ll use it…sheets from a closer vintage to the hankies’, maybe light ones behind the hankies and brighter ones for the edges. So excited to use this wonderful tutorial. Thank you so much!
I just finished one of these and would love to show you a picture!
send me a photo!
posse boss, I’d love to, but don’t have an email address for you!
Just figured it out. 🙂
love all and thank you for shring. Keep your sewing Machine oiled!!
What a great idea! I’m just sorry I’ve passed up so many pretty hankies at flea markets and estate sales . . . I’ll be buying now!
I tried to open the free pattern for the baby hankie quilt, but it says the page isn’t available. HELP!! I love this quilt!
leda- thanks for the heads up! some of the links no longer work…. It is fixed now! Enjoy!!
Just found you and I have my bag of freshly laundered and ironed vintage hankies that I have been waiting to make into something, now I know. Thanks for the pattern.
I would like to know how to get a copy of the January 2012 The Sewing Cottage.
