Bow Ties for the Little Guys

Here are some of the bow ties for little guys that I’ve made lately.  These things are just too cute.

Of course, I had to convince him that pink seersucker actually is cool for boys to wear.  He was a little hesitant at first but he came around to like it.
And here’s a christmas plaid one.

He said: “I think it would be great to have a bow tie. I’ve always wanted one!”

I’m so happy it will be going to a first-timer.  Congratulations, Scott!  Once you receive your tie, how about passing along a picture for all of us to see?

Creative Neck Tie conversions to Bow Ties

I’ve had a great time seeing the variety of neck ties that people send me to convert into bow ties.  The order that I popped into the mail today was by far the most interesting (and difficult) batch of ties that I converted yet.  I can tell that the gentleman that owned these ties has [...]

I wanted to give you a bullet point-ish post though to remind [...]

Ascot: NOT in stores everywhere this fall.

I don’t really know what to say about this.  I’m still trying to figure out if I like him wearing it. But after his unrelenting nagging, I went ahead and made him an ascot just for fun.  He found the tutorial here.  This particular one was made with two vintage neck ties so it is [...]

Playing around with my Serger

So yesterday, I finally got to play around with my serger.  I think this machine is about 30 years old.  It was most likely purchased at a garage sale to be fixed up by my grandfather who loved to fix broken things.  You wouldn’t believe how many sewing machines, sergers, clocks etc. my family found [...]
