My step dad died a few weeks ago now, and I have just recieved about 30 of his silk neck ties... My mom wants me to make 2 wall hangings using the ties, one for his son, and the other, a grandson.. I am not feeling so secure in sewing on the silk, but hope that these two memory hangings will bless Don's son, and grandson.. thanks for showing your angels, such a neat thought to use the ties for..
