I'm plowing through a stash of fabric I had forgotten I had, left over from a quilt project.
I'm shameless and will wear bow ties just about any time, because I find that people are more apt to smile at someone wearing a bow tie, even with jeans.
Any chance of a step by step masterclass? And possibly a pattern? I can work a needle and thread and a sewing machine. Just need the push in the right direction to do this myself.
