Have you thought about a Dresden or crazy quilt? There's also a book called "Dad's Ties"....it has all sorts of patterns and uses for neck-ties. Let me go out to the shop and see if I can find the book, and give you the info on it.
Beckie Couldn't fin that book, but did find this one, and here's a link to it on Amazon....just to give you some info:) Hope it help's Beckie amazon.com/5158-Tied-Up-Gail-Ellspermann/dp/1574214683/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1345984534&sr=8-1&keywords=tied+up+by+Gail+Ellspermann |

Do a search on here for tie quilts. You'll find several threads that give lots of info. Tie quilts are lots of fun. http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...lt-t22667.html

There's a pattern by Thankfully Sew called The Best Two Years that is specifically a quilt made using ties. It's cute an goes together quick. Also, I've done sort of a strip tube tie quilt.
|
I really like them in a crazy quilt.
|
Go to Google Images and type in "Quilts made with ties". There are lots of pictures of quilts made with men's ties to give you some great ideas.
