TIES

For Easter I made my boys ties.  They were so easy and they turned out pretty cute, if I do say so myself.

I got the idea from trey & lucy. Instead of using her template I just layed one of Porter's ties on top of my material and traced it making it a little wider. I did the same with Lincs.  If I were to make more of these which I probably should, I would make them a little longer because they shrink a little in the wash.  I was a little worried about washing them I thought it would come out in a ruined wrinkled mess, but surprisingly they didn't, just came out more fringed and even cuter.
                                    

Did I mention they're reversible!
