My dad passed away and I used his old ties to make bags for my nieces along with vintage fabric that my mom had. They turned out great and are a great keepsake to remember him.

Sorry about my 'poo-poo' comment! I would love to have anyone explain to me what it is I'm doing wrong :( I'm just lost here. I'm a beginner 'sew-er' ! LOL More education is a must!

In reply to carol I. Also if you don't have a man who wears ties around, thrift stores are loaded with ties.

I made this bag, but altered mine in areas the tutorial left out. It inspired me to make other types of necktie crafts! I'll post completed pictures on Craftster.org>neck tie book bag (3/14/2006)

My dad just passed away last week and had lots of ties. This will make a beautiful keepsake! I'm going to get my husband to sew one for me and my daughter. Thank you!!

https://craftbits.com/project/neck-tie-school-bag/#comment-2886

My daughter made one of these, but, what do you do with the strap "handles?" It's really neat!
