A lot of people have asked me how I constructed the ties to my first tie dress. Well I made a TUTORIAL about it. First they all have to be opened up and all insides taken out. Then iron them. Now fold them from the middle and sew a tread on to the edge to be able to scrunch them. Pin the tie to your ironing board and press it with loads of steam (use a pillowcase if your iron does not have a teflon surface).



See the complete tutorial HERE.



This dress below is my latest project from pressed ties. I plan to make the top as a separate "shoulder piece" so I´m able to attach it to a number of dresses with safetypins. If you want to see more pics of the making of-steps, click HERE.
