Men’s Ties Turned into Zippered Pouch

When my dad went to heaven last March, my mom began the arduous task of cleaning out his closet a couple months later. He had quite a lot of ties made by Jerry Garcia. The fabrics are gorgeous, colorful and silky. I couldn’t bear to see them go to Goodwill, so I asked if I could have them. I didn’t know what I was going to do with them, but I wanted to try to find a project that would put them to good use without being tacky!😲

Thank you!
