What to do with 160 ties ?
Some are silk, wool, cotton & dacron 100% , alot of them are from mens stores in Annapolis, Maryland & a few from Cumberland, Maryland( store no longer here ) . I have 2 small boxes with some cut for wall hangings & pillows already. Any suggestions ? |

So much to do with men's ties. You are lucky to have so many. There are no limites to what you can do. Happy Stitching!

I have seen beautiful quilts made from ties. Good luck in your search for the perfect pattern.
|
Make dresden plates out of them.

I've always wanted to make a silk shawl using old ties but never have been able to collect enough. Don't find very many in the thrift stores around here.

I've seen some beautiful vests made from ties.

If they are "Christmas" color's maybe a tree skirt or table runner..
I am collecting and I think Ihave more than enough but that is one place I am putting some...then quilting with them. The problem is trying to decide on a pattern. I have seen some of the dresden plate pattern with some but wanted to do something a little different.. Google men's ties quilt's and you will find some interesting ideas.. |
I gave them away to a good home. Decided I have enough projects going and I do have 2 small boxes of them prepared for a few small items from a few years ago.
Thank you for all the suggestions. :-) :-) :-) |
