"The Ties that Bind"
I'd gotten a call for entries for a new gallery in Tipp City, Ohio, was planning an exhibition called "It's a Guy Thing." They were looking for art of men, about men, or things of interest to men. I wasn't sure if any of my existing pieces fit this category, then I remembered a bunch of silk neckties that had been hanging around my closet (literally) and thought I should use them for this exhibit.
I cut the ties apart, then wove them back together.

love it! I have so many extra ties, I was trying to find something good to make. I'm adding this weave to my list.
This is so creative, Pam! I love the idea, and you executed it perfectly.
