He'd seen this blue Star Wars spacecraft blueprint material months ago when I used it to make a skirt for my Etsy shop, and he said he really wished he could have a tie made out of that fabric since he thought it looked "so cool." His words, not mine. At the time, I had no idea how to make a tie and I thought it would be extremely complicated for some reason.
Turns out, it isn't complicated at all. It's a little time consuming since there is hand-sewing involved, but I actually love hand sewing and find it to be relaxing.
When I googled how to make a tie, there were plenty of sewing tutorials to follow. The only materials needed are about half a yard of the print you want to use for the tie, half a yard of iron-on interfacing, and half a yard of the lining for the back of the tie.
After I successfully completed and gifted the Star Wars tie to Mr. Fiancé, and he loved it, I made a second tie (this time Marvel Avengers themed) for my brother's birthday. It was even easier the second time around. Plus, now I have learned how to make another another item that I can add to my Etsy shop. :)
