Neck Tie Quilt

Daughter I-Needa decided to send me this picture of the full quilt. This is the quilt Mother made a number of years ago. She searched every garage sale and gathered a sack or two of men's neckties. Then she made all these little squares and sewed them together for a quilt. She said it was really hard as all the ties are cut on the bias and you have to work with that when sewing them together.


She also made shams for the pillows, and sawtooth edging in white. It is a happy looking quilt.

You can click on the photo and get an even closer look at the quilt. Of course, you knew that.
