Carol, I too, love to see my lace used, but these bridal hankies I would
like to be handed on around the brides in the various families without
stains which might be impossible to get out. OK I will add washing
instructions, but its a bit different when just freshening up fabric and
lace to all the other possibilities.
Totally agree on the appreciation part, you begin to learn the ones to give
and the ones who wouldn't appreciate it.

Hi Beth, Sue et al,
I am quite surprised at the fact that so many don't litheir hankies actually
to be used! I have made quite a few in my time, both for myself and
friends/family, and I am always pleased when any of the lace I have made -
whether it was hankies, towel edgings or pillowcase/sheet edgings - is used
and appreciated! I can sort of understand that laundering may not agree
with a very fine Bucks point edging, but I also wouldn't like to specify
what for, or how, the item is used - once it is given away, it is that
person's property, to do with as they wish! I would be quite miffed if the
lace was discarded and the frame retained for family photos, or some such
thing but, so long as the lace really is appreciated, that is the main
thing.

I hope you're not going to allow anyone to blow there nose on your
precious
lace,
