Do you cut them up for piecing or do you use them in a special way? I'd love a pattern for using ties. Can you post the link or did you create the pattern yourself?
I wash the ties before I cut them up. Cold water with a little soap. I cant remember where I got the pattern I am using. I think i just googled "necktie quilt patterns".
