I've made a handful of these for my son, his friends, and nephews. Everytime he wears one to church I get tons of compliments and often the question- is that a real tie? I made another one for Christmas this year. When I showed my hubs he said, "Do you mind if I retie it?" He tied a double windsor! Saying, "I didn't wear a double windsor for the first time until I was on my mission (age 20)." Our little guy will be looking especially dapper this holiday season, thanks to you!kjirstihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10875030294076162255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4895335460700480103.post-23863552063746487882013-11-01T14:35:28.783-07:002013-11-01T14:35:28.783-07:00Used your tutorial to make my kids' Halloween ...Used your tutorial to make my kids' Halloween ties (Harry Potter and friends).

...Booties sound soo sweet! I would love to see it. <br /><br /><br />Congrats on your baby boy!! Hope you are doing well. Good question on the bias, Cutting on the bias will help when you tie the tie, the fabric will drape (for lack of a better word) better. Sometimes I don't cut on the bias if I don't have enough fabric and the tie still ends up just great. <br />HOpe that helps!<br />Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11461254938021249668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4895335460700480103.post-56598262815418791862013-10-16T18:46:29.332-07:002013-10-16T18:46:29.332-07:00Happy 1st!
