Embroidered Hankies
*Sunshine hankies: when something needs to be said
It always seems strange to me to see greeting cards for "Best Dad" or "Best Mum" as if the recipient is the "best" out of many (mums, dads, wives, husbands, boyfriends, etc). What we mean is "my [special someone] is the best in the world", at least for me.
So I've made these generic "You're the best!" hankies on AGF OEKO-Tex flannel fabric, each measuring about 35cm (13½") wide. They are machined edged in a flat-ish stitch. If you wish to have these re-cut and re-sewn to a smaller size, please contact Shopkeeper. *Made only when the sun is shining so a bit of sunshine is sewn into every single one.
I am working on other texts. Please do send in your suggestions. If your text is selected, you'll get the prototype (ie the bespoke item) at discount.
"You're the best!" Arial
The font used here looks like "Arial" to me. (It doesn't say on the embroidery software).
Each hankie is £7.00 and comes with a bow using a strip of organic cotton fabric and a tag with a bird design. As it's likely to be a gift, I've put it in a presentation bag.

"You're the best!" Curlz
The font used here is the more playful "Curlz" which, unfortunately, does not embroider very well at this size. (I'm working on changes.) The first "e" was somehow oversewn.
Here selling as "one of a kind" (ie unique) at only £5.00. It does not come in a presentation bag (ie no "trimmings").

The font used here is called "Tw Cen MT" (20th Century) on the embroidery software.
