I made a quick tie for Pigg#1 using this pattern and tutorial. Except I printed the pattern out with each of the pages different sizes (lame mistake) and forgot about it until I was sewing it together. So I had to fudge to make it fit together and it ended up short.
But you probably can’t tell, can you?
I had Mr. Jiggs tie me a nice looking knot and then pull the short end so the neck loop disappeared.
Then I sewed an elastic neck loop on the tie. And I put a slid on it to tighten, in case the elastic was too loose. I didn’t end up needing it, but that’s what happens when you sew during nap times or your little pigg won’t try things on for fittings.
I’m pleased with the tie and I love how it brings out the blue in his eyes. Thank you Mr. Jiggs for passing on those adorable baby blues.
The tie looks great! My friend's last name really is Pigg! She'd get a kick out of your blog =)
I looked at that same pattern, but did not have time to make a tie this year! I love the blue that you used – perfect for Easter! Thanks for linking up to Fantastic Friday.
Super cute!
