Free pattern: 10-minute tie for boys (or girls)

October 11, 2013 by Anne Weaver

Shauna from Shwin & Shwin shares a free pattern and tutorial for making her 10-minute boy’s neck tie.

They take 10 minutes (9 minutes and 37 seconds to be exact) to sew, and your son will have a tie to match any outfit.

Her post is part of a month-long series of projects you can make in 30 minutes or less. And don’t think this tie project is just good for the boys.  One of my tweeny daughter’s fave new accessories is a black cotton necktie studded with gems at the bottom.

Neck ties are surprisingly easy to make, and this DIY necktie tutorial is perfect for anyone who is trying t match colors and fabrics for a wedding party or event.

Hers came from Justice, but you could totally make one yourself using Shauna’s pattern and tutorial.  Go to Shwin & Shwin to get the pattern and the tute.

As a sewer, I know how stressful it can be to not have the right item when you need it. I remember the time when my neighbor’s online order for a tie for her son in her bridal party did not come through and I had to make one last minute. It was a stressful situation but it made me realize the importance of having a quick and easy pattern for a tie on hand, just in case. That’s why I’m excited to share this free pattern for a 10-minute tie for boys (or girls) with you.

This pattern is perfect for those times when you need a tie quickly, whether it’s for a wedding, a school event, or any other occasion. The pattern is easy to follow, and it’s designed to be sewn in just 10 minutes, so you can have a tie ready in no time. The pattern is suitable for both boys and girls, and it’s perfect for those who are new to sewing.

The pattern includes detailed instructions and a materials list, so you’ll know exactly what you need to make the tie. It’s a great way to use up scraps of fabric you may have laying around, or you can use a fat quarter to make a unique tie. You can also use different fabrics and colors to make different ties to match different outfits.

This free neck tie pattern for a 10-minute tie is a great resource to have on hand. It’s perfect for those times when you need a tie quickly, and it’s a great way to use up scraps of fabric. It’s easy to follow and suitable for both boys and girls. So why not give it a try and make your own tie today? You’ll never know when you’ll need one, and it’s always better to be prepared.

    Anne thanks for posting this – I went over to the site, found the tutorial, fell in love, called my local fabric store (here in Canada) and found out they carry buttonhole elastic (I’ve never heard of it before) – I’ll be able to whip some of these up for the little boys in our family 😀

    Thank you so much for this tutorial! I need a white tie for my son, but I don’t want to spend $20 or even $7 for something he’ll only wear one day.
