The bowties originated as an origami fold for paper, but an enterprising quilter translated it into fabric and the rest was history...they made hundreds of the things that year. I write tutorials all the time for my regular job, so I think I can put together a good instruction sheet. (I work for another IB community, Dave's Garden) I'm also a fabric artist and the Museum keeps my hand-dyed silk scarves in the gift shop.
