Dads' Bow Ties Wall Quilt

Description

Remember those bow ties your Dad and Granddad used to wear? Here's the perfect reminder of days gone by...a 100% cotton, ooak wall quilt made of reproduction small prints of the old tyme silk ties of the gentlemen of yesteryear.

The tie block also includes solids, mottles, and small prints in coordinating colors. Each tie is highlighted with metallic thread herringbone machine embroidery.

It is machine quilted in metallic thread in a diagonal diamond pattern. The hanging measures 36.5" square (92.7cm sq.), is backed with unbleached muslin, and has a rod pocket for hanging. It is also signed and dated as seen in one of the photos at right. You may note that the date of completion was a few years ago...this and more to be listed, have been packed away, and I am just now able to begin parting with them without going through the "empty nest" syndrome.

The deep, rich colors would look wonderful in a man's home office or den, or a home library...if there are still such things in existence today.
