Hello Everyone,
I have completed the 1st of 3 quilts using my father's neckties. This one that I completed this weekend is for my mother. I am making one for my sister and one for myself. What do you think of it?

What a beautiful, loving tribute to your dad. Good job!

I love this. So nice to have something of your dad's incorporated into something you love & can be reminded of him everytime you see it. Great job!

That is absolutly lovely!!!! I bet you can remember him wearing some of those.
I wish I had saved my father's ties, but he died in 1980, way before I started quilting. Who knew? |
Great quilt!!!

What a treasure! Love their picture in the middle. The ties are the perfect finishing touch!

I have over 100 neckties, been wondering what to do with them. I will be luck if it comes out as nice as yours :)
|
it is beautiful, what a wonderful way to remind you and your family of your dad...
|
Very nice. I have been collecting ties and in the sometime distant future, hope to use them in a quilt
|
the red & white & black is striking--i think you did a great job in personalizing this!
|
That's a beautiful tribute to your dad.
|
that is a special quilt. whether shedisplays it or snuggles in it, it is sure to be a comfort. and love the way the ties look like the New York Beauty pattern!
|
What a beautiful tribute to your Dad.
My Dad probably never wore a tie more than three or four times in his 87 years of life. He wore overalls except maybe to a funeral or something. |
Wonderful!! WTG
|
It's beautiful...I am sure your Mom will love it :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: Naomi

Thank you everyone. I will show pictures of quilts number 2 and 3 once they are complete.
