Ties, again

With 3 boys, it is an almost certain fact that I am working on or planning a new tie at any given time. They get to earn some of them from fun fabrics, they get a new one for birthdays and special occasions. This time though, one is for a birthday (the thomas one) and one is because the oldest just outgrew his other ties (the planets). The pattern I like to use is the Boys Ties from Patchwork Kids on youcanmakethis.com It is easy to layout and understand and in 5 seams, you're done! How easy is that? The hardest part for me is keeping the kids away from the iron.
