The Bow Tie Project Week Five

Posted on Feb 5, 2017

Squirrel/Blue Bow Tie

Quick, to the BATWING MOBILE!!!

This is the first batwing bow tie. And this is my new favorite style. Batwing, then diamond point. The batwing just has a better shape than the others.

With this one I also put a contrasting fabric on the back side. This makes for an interesting tie. When you tie it you can flip the knot to make it a contrasting color or it will just add a nice fun accent color to the tie.

This fabric wasn’t purchased for ties, but in fact was purchased to be curtains. While cutting the curtain fabric I may have accidentally cut out a bow tie. That is the nice thing about bow ties is they take so little fabric and are easy to sew.

Black is the most popular color of bow tie. BORING!

Do you also love bow ties? No one needs 52 bow ties, so I was thinking I could share the making of them with others. If you want a bow tie, you just need to buy the fabric, pay for shipping, and I will add you to the list. Shoot me an email so we can set it up. I will need to know what size your neck is.

Since I also want to gain some bow ties from this experience I will be only opening up twenty-six of the fifty-two ties for people. So get in now or miss out. Fill out the form

Wish me luck and check back every week for the newest bowtie.
