My friend gave me two full boxes of neckties to quilt with. I decided that I really didn't love the quilt idea, but I did look online and found some great ideas!
I found a skirt pattern. See my progress:
I also made a headband with a necktie flower. Yes, everything is made from a tie except the button! So so so so so much fun!

I've been meaning to ask Logan to find an old tie he doesn't wear anymore so I can make it smaller for Brennan. Fun projects. I love the headband.
I LOVE this, Laura! I can't wait to see you wearing it.
Are you kidding me?? You crafty people are absolutely AMAZING with the things you can do. I'm totally impressed.
Look at you! I love the skirt and headband. You are so talented.
This looks awesome and I am trying to make a few skirts right now out of neckties. I went around to a few of my local thrift stores to find really fun ties and just got done taking all the stitching out of them.
Question: after you made the skirt, how did you wash it? I have washed ties before and they come out all sorts of messed up.
Wish me luck!
