i have a friend making little rosettes out of old silk ties. it's her carry-around project.

when i watch her doing it, i give thanks that i never started doing that.
i'm also saving silk men's ties, but oooh! baby! they're not going to be hexes. :wink:

also, a question. what happens on the back? is it tied off in the hex corners? you wouldn't want to tie off in the centers, would you? wouldn't that spoil the overall effect? and would you batt? or just line? or use flannel? and then what would it be? a utility quilt or a hanging? wouldn't it be too fragile to use?
