Turning a male tie into a female accessory

Male tie in the history of its development passed several stages: the likeness of the ribbon on the neck, as confirmation of the status of a man, a cervical scarf, which was tied with all sorts of ways and knots, jabs, lush collars on ribbons and so on ...

Jessie Langesdorf (Entrepreneur from America) patented a tie in the form in which he and now is used everywhere: stitched of three drunk pieces. This significant event occurred in 1924, since the fashion was repeatedly changed by the width, the colors of the tie, but the main cutting trends were preserved.

- One of the few accessories acceptable in business style. Sew ties from various materials: silk, wool, mixtures, polyester. Many women with pleasure and very skillfully wear men's ties, although manufacturers sew them and especially for women.

I feel weakness to men's genuine silk ties - I got their whole collection. Sometimes girlfriends girlfriends are given to me, friends, familiar give these ties that have become not relevant. I buy silk ties on sales for 2-3 dollars per piece - I can not pass by ... And now I have accumulated a lot of tie collection, which just bored in the closet. Well, why not turn into material for needlework ...

On the Internet, I somehow discovered a photo of a female decoration, which you can easily refresh the one-window sweater or blouse without a collar. The author of the idea was not listed, but honestly confess, I only reproduced this idea in the first version of the decoration.

We need:

- tie;
- needle with a thread in tone tie;
- button or brooch;
- Portnovsky pins;
- Rule, chalk (not necessary).

1. We look at chalk on a tie future folds. It is not necessary to do this at all - you can lay the folds as prompts intuition, at different distances one from another.

2. We lay the folds along the length of the tie, starting with its wide part. Important: When forming folds, supporting an oval form of future decoration. Fix the folds of the portno pins.

3. We continue to form folds to the size of the future decoration you need (ovala). In this case, you can navigate the value of the sweaters or blouses, if we plan to fix the finished decoration in the neck cutting. Or simply choose the optimal size, trying in the process of manufacture. Do not forget every fold to fix the pin.

4. Fix from the wrong side every folding needle with a thread in tone tie, making two or three stitches, remove pins.

5. We choose a suitable decoration or button and sew on a wide part of a tie. Ready!

The second option was born quite by chance: I pulled the thread, which was sewn tie, and ... We look further.

It will take:

- tie;
- needle with thread in tone tie.

Good, high-quality ties on the reverse side are sewn, as a rule, rare stitches and very strong thread. If you pull for this thread - the tie is assembled by beautiful faldami. Especially soft and gentle falds are obtained on wide ties made of natural silk. It is almost impossible to break the thread - very strong.

1. We are looking for the first stitch on the wrong tie with a wide side of it. I pull the thread neatly and form Folds to the length we need. You can also pull the tie at the desired distance and with a narrow side, making counter faldes.

2. Collecting a certain segment of the tie in this way, fix the beginning and the end of the assemblies with a needle with a thread, making several fixing stitches.
