Hello Everyone,

I have completed the 1st of 3 quilts using my father's neckties. This one that I completed this weekend is for my mother. I am making one for my sister and one for myself.

What do you think of it?

I love this. So nice to have something of your dad's incorporated into something you love & can be reminded of him everytime you see it. Great job!

Just beautiful!!! What a wonderful way for your mom, sister and you to remember your dad. I so wish I had saved some of my dad's ties.
