Thank you so much Eleanor, I really really enjoyed watching you create those gorgeous and beautiful pieces with those amazing and beautiful silk ties. I absolutely love ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ the quilts you show at the end. I’ve subscribed and given you a thumbs up too.
Beautiful quilts you made out of old useless ties. You are the first person to wash the ties and then use in a project. Thank you, I will start looking around the thrift shops for some old ties to craft.
Eleanor, I really enjoyed watching you with your ties. I have only made rugs with mine (polyester) but have saved a boatload of silk ties that I will hopefully get to before I die. Thanks for the inspiration !!!!! ✌🏻♥️
Your cushion cover is gorgeous and so are the quilts you made! I have seen quilts and cushions made from ties, but never anything as beautiful as the ones you have made. You are very talented. Thank you for this lovely tutorial.
Charming and meditative, Eleanor. I came because I wanted to get ideas on how to stabilise fabric from my old ties. I loved your technique of tacking the silk to the interfacing first, then turning it over and bonding it properly from the back. Lovely (to see you at) work!
Hello from New Zealand Thank you I am finally confident enough to get started. I am so pleased you did this tutorial I was not going to wash my pieces first but will do so now . Also the interfacing is such a good idea. You know I would have stuffed this up first but now I have seen this i am away .
@@mmgg9337 It was made for me by a friend's husband years ago when he got back into wood work, I'll be sure to let him know that it is admired. Maybe he'll start selling them, who knows.
Thank you, I have 2 big tubs full of silk ties and you inspired me to finally do something with them. I think I'll save the small, odd-shaped scraps for my Victorian crazy quilting. The lovely calming music is an added bonus to your superior instruction. I also adore your garden, my style exactly. Happy spring, may our creative juices flow !
Thank you Eleanor! Yours is the most satisfying tutorial about recycling (actually reinventing) silk ties I have ever seen. Your neat method of cutting and making half square triangles is the one thing I had been looking for up to now. All the best from "sunny" Italy.
Woaw, så beautiful it looks. I have got lots of ties from my brother in polyester and silk. I didn't think I could wash the ties that are made of silk. Now I'm going to wash and sew. Thanks a lot for this video!
I use the polyester ties to make rugs. I reduce and braid three ties together. Make a really long snake of braided ties and then start my shape and sew the rows together. The rugs last for years and if they start to get dirty, just spray them with cleaner, rinse, and leave outside to dry on a fence. ✌🏻♥️
Thank you so much for such a detailed tutorial! I have a lot of silk scraps and I have been thinking of making a wall hanging piece out of them, but I’ve never quilted in my life. Thanks for the inspiration 😊
Привет из России Я тоже из галстуков люблю создавать интересные вещи, косметички, наволочки, шоперы Только я их сначала стираю, распускаю, они легко распускаются Затем глажу и режу на нужные формы Благодарю вас за видео
This video is very helpful, thank you. My Dad passed away and I'm trying to turn his clothes and silk ties into memory quilts. Now I feel ready to get started on it. Is the quilt able to go through the washing machine when it's all done or will it damage the silk still?
Eleanor, thank you for making the process of getting ties ready to sew so clear. I'm wondering, I have been collecting silk fabric samples for a while now with the goal of using them in a patchwork project. Since these are not things that have been worn, do I need to go through the washing process or would ironing and adding interfacing to the backs of the samples be adequate? Thanks
Hello from Canada, love your work! What kind of batting do you use when you make a larger piece? And what kind of backing? I see you are doing big stitch quilting which seems to be the ideal method for holding it all together and adding embellishment.May I ask what kind of thread you use for the hand quilting? Thank you so much.
Hi Irmgard, I've only just seen your comment, batting for all my hand quilted projects is 80/20 low loft batting - I don't use any particular brand. The thread I use for sashiko quilting or big stitch quilting is cotton Perle no 8, I hope that helps 🙂
Good question, I use it to give substance to appliqué, hairbands, and in jewellery making (for necklaces). It can also be used in lapel's on a jacket or coat, collars, anywhere you would normally use a heavy interfacing in dressmaking.

Hi!! I’m in New Zealand too!!! We are travelling our beautiful country in a very comfortable house bus… this sort of project is perfect!!!
Это натуральный шелк. Это приятно к телу. И полезно для кожи.
Really interesting. The best tie upcycling I have seen
Thank you. I'm glad you found it interesting 😌
PS where can I get a quilting ruler stand like yours?

Thank you Margarita, what a lovely comment ☺️ I'm so glad you feel inspired, and good luck with all your creative endeavours.

What a lovely comment, thank you Virginia, good luck with your own silk tie project. All the best from Wales - definitely not sunny today.
Yay! And we got to see you 😍 I have seen both the quilts before 😘 and I ADORE both of them 💖
Awww, you are very kind 😃 thanks for sourcing about 60% of ties too ❤

Beautiful work
Beautiful! ❤
So lovely to see you! I'm amazed as to how much work goes in to prepping the ties before you even start sewing! That colour combo is gorgeous.
Awww thank you ❤
Awesome idea!
Que hermosos edredones 😍

Gracias por tus amables palabras.
Just amazing ❤❤❤
Привет из России
Я тоже из галстуков люблю создавать интересные вещи, косметички, наволочки, шоперы
Только я их сначала стираю, распускаю, они легко распускаются
Затем глажу и режу на нужные формы
Благодарю вас за видео
Галстуки шьют из натурального шелка. Шелк очень приятен на теле и полезен. Керотин
Fascinating!
What was the powder you added to the water after you washed and rinsed the ties?
They are beautiful. i especially love the log cabin one. Did you hand quilt it? It looks really fantastic and thanks for sharing the process.
This video is very helpful, thank you. My Dad passed away and I'm trying to turn his clothes and silk ties into memory quilts. Now I feel ready to get started on it.
Is the quilt able to go through the washing machine when it's all done or will it damage the silk still?
Zabardast
Чоң рахмат.👍🌹
How do you use the tags that are on the ties (makers tag) in the pillow?
❤
What do you use to wash a ties so they will not lose your color
Eleanor, thank you for making the process of getting ties ready to sew so clear. I'm wondering, I have been collecting silk fabric samples for a while now with the goal of using them in a patchwork project. Since these are not things that have been worn, do I need to go through the washing process or would ironing and adding interfacing to the backs of the samples be adequate? Thanks

Вы Марья,- Искусница из русской народной сказки!
What was that you added to the water for the rinse step? Thank you
What interfacing did you use to stabilize the fabric.
What did you add to your rinse water?
On the first rinse white vinegar literally just a teaspoon, and to the final rinse a very gentle fabric conditioner.
Did you use silk thread?
Beutiful
Please, can you tell me what to do with all of the Tie Padding I have accumulated?
Good question, I use it to give substance to appliqué, hairbands, and in jewellery making (for necklaces). It can also be used in lapel's on a jacket or coat, collars, anywhere you would normally use a heavy interfacing in dressmaking.

How to make a table cover?
Hello
Неужели не мешают рукава???
А можно было без стирки галстуков? Они ведь не настолько грязные?
А насколько они должны быть грязными чтобы нужно было их стирать?
