Description
This scarf was made by sewing two vintage neckties together, creating an artsy scarf. Both are labeled silk from Korea and have nautical themes. The sailboat one has a label for Palm Tropics. The lighter one has a sailboat theme and the darker one, a lighthouse theme with seagulls flying.
I added a blue yo-yos, also made of neck tie fabric, attached by embroidering.

A friend of mine was moving and called all of us fiber artists over to snap up her stash of supplies. She had a barrel full of neckties and told us that whatever was left was going into the dumpster, so I grabbed a bunch. Couldn’t have that happen!
I had a lot of fun making these bold accessories (I made several). I think of this as something similar you would see in some countries, where a textile is draped for effect, more than for function.
