Easter is coming, it's just a week away! But the good news is, you have time to make the Little Guy Ties! Ditch those boring store bought ties and make something special for your little guy and your big guy.!
I found this pattern to be extremely quick and easy, it took me only about a half hour! There is little to no hand stitching, depending on the tie you make. There are many variations for the tie, including a toddler bowtie.
The tie that my son is wearing (below) was the "Classic Guy Tie", 4-10 years made with Heart to Heart Black and White by Alexander Henry Fabrics. The first tie I made, I used the interfacing and it was too stiff. So the tie you see in the picture has no interfacing and it turned out just perfect.
Be sure to place your order by Wednesday March 31st to get your order by Good Friday.
The "Classic Guy Tie" using Zebra by Timeless Treasures
Think of us as your friendly local quilt shop, but online. Our carefully curated collection of designer fabrics, notions, and patterns has been handpicked by a fellow sewing enthusiast who shares your passion for creating.
Our journey began as Fashionable Fabrics, and we’ve grown over the years thanks to the wonderful support of loyal customers like you. Inspired by the vibrant, creative spirit of our community, we eventually renamed our store Bunbury. The name comes from Oscar Wilde’s 1895 play The Importance of Being Earnest, where the lead character invents a friend named Bunbury to escape obligations. After all, who wouldn’t rather be sewing?
Sewing and fabrics have always been close to my heart. As a young girl, I cherished the quilts, crocheted afghans, and dresses my grandmother and mother lovingly made for me—handmade treasures that hold immense value because of the love and care that went into them.
This connection to sewing became even more profound when our first child, Ellie, was born prematurely at just 24 weeks. Although her time with us was heartbreakingly brief, the hospital gave us a handmade dress, hat, and blanket for her—a simple but incredibly touching gesture that touched my husband and me deeply. Since then, sewing has taken on a deeper meaning for me. What started as a form of therapy has become a love language. I find joy in creating handmade gifts, especially for those who need a little extra comfort.
Building Bunbury with my husband—my high school sweetheart and partner in everything—has been a dream come true. It allows me to share my passion for sewing with a community of makers who understand the joy of creating something meaningful with their hands.
