Felix: I cut my bandana up because I thought an entire one was too much for one little nose. I thought it was ridiculous to whip out a huge bandana when a little piece would do. Actually, half a bandana was all I used because I used the two fourths alternately. In New England I had another whole bandana which I used for my "bath towel." (It sometimes doubled as my dish rag, too.) :-) Gail/Gutsy
