Order here on the forum to save some money. https://www.etsy.com/shop/ArrowHandkerchiefs I make to order with 1-5 days processing. $17.5 each Shipping Included (+$2 internationally). 4 for $60 Over 300 fabrics and 122 thread colors in stock.

ORDERING ▬ ► Fabric overview on imgur HERE: https://imgur.com/a/635pK ► Each fabric is numbered in the photos. You will need to zoom in on the pictures to get a better view of the fabric and numbers. Better Resolution of Fabrics with Numbers can be Found HERE: http://imgur.com/a/aBED7 ► Generally available at least as large as 10 inches square, but designs can be unique and that dictates their best format sometimes. Feel free to start a conversation including the materials you want and I can let you know what your size options are. Some can be made as large as 13.5" square ► I offer a feature called the SLIT. Suspend. Lash. Integrate. Tie. This area of reinforced stitching can be added to any corner to provide an opening for your use. Pliable but sturdy and better than a metal eyelet for a hank. It is generally shipped unopened so the buyer can open it when/if they want to, but I will open before mailing upon request. Please include your interest in a note if you want this feature.

Detailed info can be found HERE: https://imgur.com/a/Ur5Sv 6xx- are Solid Dyed 100% Cotton Flannel THE HANK ▬ ► Each hank is made with a triple inner stitching AND an outer stitching that is both functional and decorative. A 10x10" hank has over 2000 stitches holding it together. You won't find more a more durable and well executed design. ► All fabric undergoes a special 5-step treatment procedure (not a simple wash and dry) to soften, pre-shrink and make them colorfast. No fragrance. Expect them to continue to soften even more after each wash. Castille Soap and Wool Dryer Balls instead of detergent and dryer sheets. ► All fabric is 100% cotton unless otherwise noted. Cotton is very durable, soft and absorbent. Linen is more absorbent, but takes more time to wear in and is less durable. ► Cool Machine Wash and Low Heat Dry. Iron on high heat with steam as desired. ► All thread is Gütermann Polyester for the best strength and durability. ► My makers mark is a sewn in functional loop with an embroidered arrow. This is placed in the corner to keep it out of the way and to make it easy to hang. SHIPPING ▬ ► FREE First Class Package USA shipping. $2 International Flat shipping.

Received my hanks on Saturday. They look great. I'm already getting in the habit of having one in my back pocket. Very impressed with the quality of work, plus dealing with @Slade is always a positive experience.
I received my handkerchief today and it is PERFECT. It has wonderful stitching, it is both durable and beautifully done. The fabric is very soft and well made. Everyone should consider buying something this high quality. Just an amazing buying experience! Thank you so much!
I appreciate the kind words very much. Spent all night making 6 additional handkerchiefs. They have been added at the top of the page. I also found two more cool vintage fabrics today that are in route to me. I'll post them with the others here. UPDATE 3-16-17 1530 EST - 6 New Hanks added
I'm trying to drive traffic to my Etsy Shop to get some reviews going and make my site more visible hopefully. Etsy Store Link Thank you in advance.
Yessir. Maybe 218, 219, 220? That fabric should come in soon. The first one will be yours. Do you want flannel backing? Anything that starts with 2xx is flannel. The fabric store is on my way home from work though so I can prob fill just about any request. Edit to say that fabric will not be in tomorrow. Going to be Saturday or Monday.
Haha. Sorry. See this post. All fabrics are numbered for build your own orders. Probably need ot enlarge them to read the numbers.
218 with white thread. I think your post and instructions are fine. I just jump into things without reading instructions or half the conversation
