DH has asked me to make him a denim tie to wear to an office BBQ.

I found this free pattern online:

Any words of wisdom before I go fabric hunting?

There's always a bit of teasing at his office. He's known for wearing dress shirts and ties even when some of the employees wear dockers and polo shirts.

I think he would look nice in a long sleeve chamray shirt with a tie made out of bandana material. He has his heart set on denim like material.

If I do actually make it out of old blue jeans, I wonder how it would work with no lining and raw edge since denim is so thick.

If you have made a tie, could you show a picture of it?

I'm more of a quilter than a seamstress. :-(
