I remember my Mom making a sunburst quilt from the large ends and a pillow from the small ends of ties. Yours is very pretty.

Cool-how did you accumulate so many ties?-our local thrift store just raised the price from 99cents to 2$ and up per tie!

I love it. I have tried making quilts with ties and they are not
easy to work with.

It's beautiful. I love the look of the dresden plates and this is them and so much more. Beautiful.

Welcome from Wisconsin. We can even use a topper during some the summer nights up here and my daughter who lives right at the base of a mountain range in Idaho can definitely use it year around. Thanks for sharing, it's a great idea. I love the colors.
