That is awesome! That is also my one of my favorite patterns. I've made the Donna Jordan color version, and am in the process of gathering Christmas fabrics to make a Christmas one. Green mix was going to be my next one, but now I need to consider neckties!

Thank you all for your kind words! Just beware, if you want to work with ties, this was a lot of work just to get the neckties ready to work with. First, I washed the ties by putting them in bags and putting them in the washer and dryer to try to keep them from tangling up too much. Then I had to take them each apart and discard the interfacing from each tie. Next, press each one and put iron-on interfacing on them. And last, cut each one out and sew together. Just the pressing and iron-on interfacing took about a week or so. I did a lot of searching on youtube for tutorials on how to work with neckties, and since these were used ties, this was always suggested.
