Michelle (Momof11)'s January Bow Ties


I got my new machine and tested it out sewing 9 blocks for the lotto. The middle one might be pushing the definition of plaid a little....The new machine works great, and the 1/4" seam is right where it should be...no adjustments or learning curve.

ljrandolph's bow tie blocks...


Kate's bow ties



At last - nine bow ties (I promise the top left purple really is a plaid, even if it doesn't look it from the photo). These were quick blocks to make - the delay for me was in having no plaids in my stash!
