I love your idea for the quilt...I have a bunch of mens ties, but not as many as you have put in each block. These were my father in laws I am making for his daughter and my husband.

Welcome to the board, neighbor! I also live in Vancouver.

love your use of the ties. i have saved hundreds and haven't done a thing with them. Can't resist buying the novelty ones. Just got one with $$$ all over it.

Absolutely stunning. One question for you, how do you clean the quilt? Most of my husband's ties are dry clean only, so I'm assuming a quilt made of ties would have to be dry cleaned. Never thought I'd be interested in doing a tie quilt, but you've definitely gotten me rethinking that.
