    This is a wall quilt I'm working on. It is made from my friends deceased hubby's ties.

    I pinned it and now have to work some wrinkles out before I quilt it, but wanted to show it to you all.

    Update, here it is finished now.

    Thanks, now that it is squared up it looks much better :lol: .

    Polyester, silk and cotton don't sew very well together tho! :( I had a devil of a time with it.
