Embroidery

Lately I've been doing some embroidery on cotton hankies. I plan to give them to the women in my family for Christmas. The hankies are regular mens 100% cotton hankies. But being that size, they are actually usable - for sneezes or cleaning glasses, etc. AND much nicer on a nose than kleenex AND a "greener" reusable. Just wash (iron if you must) and its ready to use all over again. Please see the pix to the right. What do you think?
