I also have a big bin of washed, deconstructed ties waiting on time to put something together. "Daddy's Ties, a book by Shirley Botsford has a lot of ideas for using ties for projects. I bought it on Amazon several years ago. I found the book to be very helpful in prepping the ties for use.

yes that would help. I do not understand how you use the muslin. Pics are worth a thousand words.
thank you

Are your ties all silk or polyester? I would like to make a quilt using ties, but did not think the silk ties would wash well.

A tutorial would be wonderful. You are so generous to share.

Also, how did you wash the ties?

I made a tutorial link above....I just put all my quilts in the washer with soap and wash on delicate...the ones that unravel I throw out...the silk ones are more wrinkled but thy iron out ok....I take them apart after thy are dry...I hang them to dry...
