New Product! Bowties!

I've always been a fan of men's ties. I used to make things with them when I was first learning to sew in high school, and I was always the menswear-minded girl at that age too, nobly wearing ties to school even when it wasn't part of the uniform. You can imagine the backlash!

But now that I have Sourdough I can indulge in this love of vivid neckwear and enjoy it.

At the prompting of a close family friend, I've come up with a collection of mens bowties crafted from my beautiful barkcloth fabrics. They're of the old-fashioned freestyle variety, and each one is sized to fit so there's no adjustable loop. I know that some people are fans of the adjustability, but I wanted to make these very simple and very old school.

Each one can be custom ordered by request if you don't see the size and pattern that you like. I'm happy to make them for you at the same price!
