About this product

Product Information

What is Hankie Couture ? A stunningly original collection of doll-sized fashions--everything from pajamas to wedding gowns--meticulously crafted from vintage handkerchiefs. Accented with slyly witty Hankie Couture girl "philosophy," this book is a stylish showcase of 125 unique fashions and accessories. It is also a how-to guide that allows you to transform treasured heirlooms or colorful flea-market finds into one-of-a-kind fashion ensembles. Whether it's a floral sundress that fans out as it twirls, an apron dress with a scalloped border, or a neatly pin-tucked linen dress with pearl buttons, the book encompasses a seemingly infinite variety of exquisite dresses. Neither crafters nor doll collectors have ever seen a book like this, making Hankie Couture a uniquely irresistible challenge to crafters. And with its beautiful design and kitschy lifestyle advice, this makes a great gift book.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

All around had the best experience you could hope for with purchasing online. Seller was informative of the shipping process from start to finish.

  • Barbie Clothes from Vintage Handkerchiefs

    This is an absolutely darling book; the author is incredibly talented and clever. It's basically an insruction book about how to make clothes for a Barbie-style doll using vintage handkerchiefs. Any mother/grandmother/aunt et al. would enjoy making these for a special little girl. I would give this book 5 stars, and definitely recommend it.

  • Great to look at

    Great book for ideas, only three bodice patterns that can be found in any Barbie pattern

  • Thank you for this adorable little book...I luv it.

    Haven't used it yet. I'm still memorized with the beautiful pics. I will do some experimenting soon. I haven't done much sewing so I'm excited to see how I fare with vintage hankies & Marsha's patterns & instructions. This is a wonderful little book. I highly recommend it to any doll lover who enjoys sewing for her dolls.

  • i will resell this book at a loss. I am very disappointed in it

    the photos are very nice but you do not get very many patterns and the patterns for the best dresses shown are not included. the instructions for the patterns that are included are not good enough for anyone but the most experienced sewers and those folks wouldn't wan t those simple patterns anyway

  • Loved that Hankie Couture book

    great little book showing lots of sewing ideas - thinking outside of the box with doll clothes. Who knew? The patterns included in the book are a bonus to unleash your own creativity.
