i am interesting in embroidering handkerchiefs for my wedding. i am having a difficult time finding instructions for stitches. everything i find shows the cross-stitch stitches using the fabric with the defined squares on where to sew, so i am a little confused how to translate it on a handkerchief. and i’m not sure what the best stitch is for filling in the monogram is. anyone have any advice? thanks!

Thanks guys! I made them when I was on business trips and while Aaron was napping. They weren’t very time consuming, and he was actually surprised!

Thanks so much for this idea. It’s absolutely perfect for my hubby. He always has lovely handkerchiefs ( one of the reasons I fell in love with him – weird!) so this would be a super surprise!

these are great. one question: how’d you embroider them all yourself and still make them a “surprise?”
