Pamela's Necktie Quilt


Pamela (Pamela Quilts blog) made this necktie quilt for a customer. She says she bit off way more than she expected when taking on this project. Click on the link to see more photos and read about her experience. She says it's really heavy. Haha. I think it looks really nice. See the back too (below).


Pamela also sells quilts in her Etsy store: Pamela Quilts. The pretty quilt below is just one of the more than 100 items in her store. And I just have to show you one of her selvage bags too, after all, this is the Selvage Blog.

Now is that cool or what? Yayy, Pamela!

Love the tie quilt! I made someones ties into a quilt earlier this year I was surprised how much fabric is in a tie. That is a really beautiful example :)

Thanks, Karen! I just have to say that I am really glad that they were older, very wide ties! It was a neat project, and my customer was absolutely thrilled with it. And now I can say that I have made a quilt out of neckties. Thanks so much for featuring me - I feel like a celebrity!
