Necktie Quilt Pattern

Necktie Quilt Pattern©

By: Chris Dahl

Make a treasured memory quilt from dad's old neckties!

What better way to honor someone special in your family than with a necktie quilt.  Neckties are so beautiful with all the special patterns and unusual fabrics that you have to make at least one of these to really appreciate their beauty.

Don't throw away those old ties, make a tribute or memory quilt out of them.  Once you learn the secrets to working with neckties, you may find yourself hunting in resale shops and yard sales for ties to make additional quilts with.

Here are a few reasons why you should buy this class

• Foundation piecing is a favorite method of piecing among many quilters. - Foundation piecing is fast, accurate and a great way to work with odd shapes.  Watch our 2 great videos and see how much fun you can have with this method of piecing.
• Ties are small, so how do you get the most useable fabric and least amount of waste? Watch our video on cutting your ties and find out.
• Proper basting is the key to successful quilting. Watch Chris's video on pin basting and find out how to do this properly, accurately, and see why this is a favorite basting method for many quilters today.
• Would you like to honor a family member? Memory quilts are a great way to do this.  And what better way than to make a quilt from their own ties!

"Once you learn how easy and fun it is to work with neckties, you won't want to stop at just one........make one for every family member!  Resale shops and yard sales are great places to find used ties; I know that is where I found most of the ones used in the making of this class."  

This class is loaded with videos, and excellent written instructions to insure your success.  Working with ties can be tricking but we will guide you each step of the way.  Don't miss out on this opportunity to make a memory quilt for someone special in your family, add this class to your shopping cart and get started today!

Testimonials from previous students

so a BIG THANK YOU."

"I like that there is an example of how the quilt will look - even as a
computer image like this one. It helps to know a bit about how the finished
quilt will look.

Chris is doing a fantastic job, and I really enjoy her weekly discussions
and tips of the week. What a lovely person she is.

Thanks for your great work.

Chris is good teacher and is easy to learn from. Since then I have step out of my comfort zone and Made a quilt for a friends sons in laws (wife's parents) the quilt consists of the American Flag and the Brazilian Flag . I enjoy the website and the lessons.

Enjoying quilting

"I purchased the necktie quilt because my husband had decided to throw out a few ties. The instructions for this were straight forward with useful hints on how to prepare your fabric from the actual ties themselves. As usual there were lots of opportunities to personalise the quilt should you wish to such as different arrangements of the quilt blocks. Many thanks for an unusual idea.With many thanks for a useful and interesting website.
With kind regards
Jeanette "

How our Home Study Program Works

Quilting Weekly's Home Study Program has you in mind.  We know your time is valuable and finding time to learn how to quilt can be difficult when you need to travel to a quilt shop and work with their schedule of classes.

I know this first hand because I have taught live classes and found it challenging to pick the right day of the week, the perfect time to hold class and still pick a project that was interesting enough to make the students commit!

With Quilting Weekly's Home Study Program, you can choose the quilting patterns and quilt lessons you want to work on, you get to decide when you have time to work on them, and the best part is you never even have to leave home to do this! No more lugging machines or forgetting supplies, and no more traveling in bad weather or risking cancellations after you purchased those supplies!  At Quilting Weekly we never cancel class.

Just choose your quilting lessons and pay. Once you've completed the purchasing process you will be sent an email with a special link to the download page.  From there you will download all the class requirements, videos, audios and quilting lessons.  You can save them to a file on your computer, burn them to a disk, or print them out for easy reference.  It couldn't be any easier! (Well unless you are lucky enough to be my neighbor and then we could learn together)

What if I have a question during my quilting lessons?

Not to worry if you purchase quilting lessons from Quilting Weekly you are never alone.  Would having a secret e-mail address for personal assistance make you feel more confident?  Well that is exactly what you'll get, access to Chris Dahl 24/7!
