Well, it's not just pretty, it's absolutely GORGEOUS
I've always wanted to do this...have maybe a total of 20-30 ties...guess I'd better get collecting, huh.... Would you mind giving us more information on how you constructed it, etc. Did you have a pattern to go by? Any hints would truly be helpful. Thank you. I'm sure your husband is absolutely delighted to have you finish this for him.... Thank you for sharing

This quilt is amazing. You did a great job on it. A nice lady I know gave me all of her husband's ties after he passed. I want to make her a quilt out of them. I am wondering do I laundry the ties before putting them in a quilt and also do I cut them apart or take the stabilizer out?

This really is absolutely beautiful! Love the way you did the sunbursts on the corners! I know you are sooo glad you got it all done, really is a good feeling when we persevere and finally finish!
