There is actually at least one book on making quilts out of neckties. There are lots of ways to do it. I did one that looked like a folded man's shirt with a necktie. Used shirting for the shirt portion. It was darling.Also foundation pieced one & it turned out beautiful. There are lots of possibilities, but there is also a lot of prep work before you can get started. Taking them apart, washing, ironing & some also need a stabalizer. I have hundreds in my stash & about that many ideas for their second life as a quilt. Happy quilting & do share what you decide to do with yours.
