Grandpa's ties

Instructions

Take out all the interfacing with a seam ripper first. Then sew the ties together to make a block whatever size you would like.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Retro / Vintage, Romantic


Materials

I used my grandpa's ties and made a wall hanging for my grandma to remember him by. I also made three small blocks for each one of their children. Heavy upholstery fabric was used for the blocks and corduroy around the edges.

What was your inspiration?

I wanted to remember my grandpa after he passed.

What are you most proud of?

That I could give this to my grandmother.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

It takes time to take all the interfacing out. Get a few good movies and enjoy.
