Art Quilts

This year's San Diego Quilt Show featured two quilts sewn with neckties.

"Bow Ties" by Cindy Barger used ties in the bow tie quilt pattern.
She used her husband's ties after he left his "dress-up job". She said the quilt made better use of the ties.

"Necktie Mandala", by Peggy Caballero, used strips of silk from a customer's father's neckties in a mandala shape.
