I have a mountain of ties that I have collected for a tie quilt. Now, I can't make up my mind just how to use them. Have any of you made a quilt for men's ties? Show me yours. Maybe I can get some fresh ideas. Thanks

When my father-in-law passed away I made a pillow for my sister-in-law, nephew and husband using his ties, I also did a little poem on the back. They all cried when they opened them.

dpparris..what a wonderful gift. So precious!!

I have a box of silk ties waiting for a project. Let's see more!

Aww that is such a wonderful pillow!

I love the pillow. that is so neat. These were ties that I bought at auctions and yard sales. So, there is no family tie.(no pun intended)
I'd like to see more. |
I've seen them done in Dresden Plate, strip pieced (which is one of my favorites for ties) and used in an art quilt with the ties "hanging" at different heights. Wish I had taken a pic.
