Sewing craft ideas using mens silk ties?

Thank you all so very much for your great ideas. I have taken so many of his belongings to different charity shops but really wanted something I could keep and treasure but didn't have any ideas, now I have, much appreciated.

Yes, Whiff, there was a recycling challenge in an episode of Sewing Bee using ties. knspol You could possibly find it on YouTube.

You could lay some flat and then weave others through then keeping it flat so you end up with a piece of usable fabric. Pin them together and sew onto a piece of firm material like cotton either by hand or machine . If you are worried about them moving you could put fabric adhesive on the backing fabric for use with silk and press onto back of the woven ties. Once dry either use as a cushion front . You can buy cushion backs with zips already in them just remember to unzip the before sewing onto the back of the ties. Or you could make a bag using 2 woven sides and making the side and bottom gusset from firm cotton .

I think there is an episode of sewing bee that they used ties in the recycle challenges you would need to Google it.

Go to Pinterest, new uses for old ties, lots of great ideas.

I have seen on Etsy a memory quilt which looks lovely with the ties in a sort of starburst pattern on a white background.

There are lots patterns for quilts made with silk ties. Look on Pinterest or Google. DH no longer wears a tie so there are dozens in his wardrobe.
