That is beautiful. I was planning to use the bowtie pattern to use my dad's ties but I love yours. I will look for the book. Thanks for posting.

I am sure yours will be just as nice or nicer. Thanks again for all of the great compliments.

:D :thumbup: :thumbup: This is absolutely beautiful. I'm working on a Tie Quilt as well. The one that I'm doing is using the Cathedral Window block. I'm making it for a friend of mine. His father passed away recently, and I thought it would be nice if he had to ties to keep as a momento.

What a beautiful quilt. I love the vibrant colors. I have a copy paper box full of ties maybe this will inspire me to get them out. Thanks for sharing

Your quilt is beautiful. The colors are striking.
how long did it take to make? I sure looks like a labor of love.

Did you have a pattern for this? I have started saving ties for this but have not came across a pattern. Yours looks lovely!

Catjo, The pattern came from a book by Fons and Porter. It is "Quick Quilts from the Heart." Hope you enjoy making yours as much as I enjoyed making this one. It took about a year to make but I didn't work on it constantly.
