Necktie Upcycle Sewing Projects

The crafter in me cringes when I see perfectly good fabric headed for the donation pile. Neckties may not pack a lot of yardage, but they do often consist of quality fabric, and love sewing every scrap. Grab some old neckties and consider one of these creative upcycle projects.
