so, this post has been a looong time coming, i suppose...
a few months ago i got a really big urge to start sewing. SO i went out and bought a sewing machine! since then i've been sewing anything + everything. minus clothing {i'm still a little intimidated by clothing}.
while flipping through martha stewart mag a few months ago, i saw this necktie envelope. i knew it was a perfect gift for irv for valentines day [i know this post is a month late, but the gift was on time! :] since i had already started making him a tie!
so here's my version + i decided i wanted to add a button to the front.
i'm super happy with the way it turned out! its extremely easy and the outcome is really satisfying. i know more necktie envelopes are in my future :)
i made a valentine's day tie for my boyfriend, too! :)
ReplyDeletegood work!
the nektie envelope design looks perfect, good job.

ReplyDeletethanks for stopping by my blog hun! i am soo glad i found yours, i JUST started my sewing adventure too and the only thing i have made is a camera strap cover, i did a tutorial post on my blog. it was straight lines so pretty simple. since then, i have sewn fabric wallets (i learned at a class) and i love them as gifts, will do a post about it later. i am excited to see all your future sewing projects and maybe i will try this necktie envelope someday!!! =)
ReplyDeleteWow! What a cute idea, and your looks so well done! I might have to make one of those for my Brian :)
