Mother's Day Gifts you can Sew....

A Pretty Handmade Handkerchief

A Pretty Handkerchief is something very sweet you can make for Mom or Grand Mom. They will cherish it forever.  To make it even more special, sign and date it on the back.

 
You can make this special handmade handkerchief from scraps of fabric lying around the house.  All you need is a 10" square of pretty fabric, and about 40" of trim.
Zigzag stitch around the outer edge of the fabric.  This will hold the threads in from coming out when the hankie is washed, and it keeps the edges pretty.

Press your hankie nice and flat.

Pin the pretty trim around the outer edge of your hankie.  Stitch the pretty trim in place using a straight stitch.
If you want to, you can add an "M" for Mom or her initial on a corner of the hankie, as shown in the photo.

Use an evaporating fabric pen, or if you do not have one, draw the letter very lightly with a pencil.

Use a very small and tight zigzag stitch and sew around the letter.

There, your adorable pretty hankie for Mom or Grand Mom is done!
