I've been asked to make a pillow from the neckties of a man who has passed. I've looked at some tutes online and it does not seem too complicated. IDK yet if I will be asked to keep the ties intact (which would mean sewing them on the edges with a 1/4" seam??) or cut them and piece them.

I'd love any advice though!! I've never done this. I'm guessing I keep my iron way lower when I press. Do I use a pressing cloth too? IDK yet what fabric the ties will be made from. It's all up in the air right now but I'm planning in my head. This sounds like an interesting project.

Thanks in advance.
