So many cool ties, but who wants to wear them around
their neck? Why not sew them together to make a
funky skirt?

A couple months ago a friend gave me a fabulous collection of vintage and not-so-vintage neckties. Thrilled, I sorted out the ties that were too fragile and those with spots or stains, and organized the remainders to make 3 skirts. My tie skirts are fun to wear and have started some great conversations. Gather a handful of neckties and some simple supplies, and you too can tie on a unique and eye-catching skirt.
