This looks really neat! It's much more simple than the other tutorials I watched, as I'm not very experienced in sewing. I cant wait to use this for my Aziraphale cosplay!
Loved this tutorial! I just stated making bow ties! You can use an air compressor to invert fabrics with grip :) going to try out the hand stitch finish!!! Did not realize that was possible!
Going to make one for myself now using this pattern of material!. I wear regular ties a lot, but been getting into bow ties a lot lately. The skill of tying one, you made look very simple and easy to get right here!.😎👍😊
I couldn't find a downloadable pattern so I made my own - if you pause the clip at the beginning when the pattern is against the marked cutting board you can see the correct dimensions - make sure you have the cutting board imperial side up though and not metric
Works better if you apply interface to the back side of the fabric then draw the bowtie pattern on the interface and sew directly on top of the line. More even pattern is made and it is more uniform and easier to sew. Takes the guess work out so all patterns are exactly the same.
Good call on the interfacing! Great for a more structured look. The benefit of no interfacing in this situation is that it gave the bow tie a more casual look. Thanks for watching!
This comment is the only reason I didn’t give up on the idea of seeing a bow tie. Thank you!!! I had no idea how to start with the length so I’m really happy I came across your comment!
Very nice!! I often make bowties to match prom & other gowns. But make the bow on the adjustable band as most guy just can’t tie them. I think I’ll make some of these with gown fabric & have them on hand. Thank you, Katie
Loved everything about it! Great choice in fabric! The scale is totally off and that rocks!!! And nice touch with the hand sewing! Makes a huge subtle difference! I’ll have to remember that! I’m a street vendor and sell purses I make! I’m looking to find something simpler to create and sell! I’m in KEy West and I think the snow bird fellas’ will love quirky tropical inspired bow ties. I’m glad I found you! Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!!!!
Hey there Danielle! Thank you so much for watching, and I am glad you liked the tutorial! Funny story, I used to be a vendor in Ottawa Canada's By Ward Market. I sold handmade bags as well! Mine were reversible tote bags, but I relate to the problem of needing a quick sell item for those "spur of the moment $5.00 customers" Good luck! I hope your new products sell out!
There are just a few changes I would make. Make sure you are tracing and cutting from fabric at a 45 degree angle. This is to extend the life of the tie and keep it from stretching. Add interfacing to each piece as well to give it more structure and durability. It will make your tie look more substantial, make it easier to tie, and all around make a better end result.
Thanks for sharing this tutorial. I usual use slides for my bow ties but I'd like to try this style. Did I miss that link for the pattern piece and dimensions?
Hey Kim, I haven't got a pattern for it. I looked on all of my hard drives. Perhaps I will revisit this in the future and make a physical pattern. Until then, I would trace over an existing bow tie if you have one, or search for a template on google, or Pinterest. Good Luck! xoxo Laura
Hey Jazz, there are many available online, but what I did was trace a bowtie I already had, and then I added 1cm additional fabric, all around the stencil!
Patterns are available online, some free, others for a few dollars. Just google "bow tie pattern" or something like that. OR....if you have a bow tie already, just trace it out.
I'm glad you've found the video useful. As for measurements, I will try to add them in the future videos. You could extrapolate your own measurements as this project was one-of-a-kind creation type of project. Wonderful Holidays!
there is no adjustment so it may be too long or too short after it is tied?? Too late to make an adjustment at that point without cutting and resewing it.
Thanks Frank - I will keep it in mind for future bow tie projects. This one-of-a-kind project was made with Alex's help for measurements while I was making it. Cheers!
This was a good tutorial, but the way you pinned and cut your fabric hurt my soul. You shouldn’t cut in the middle of the fabric and there are much easier ways to pin your fabric so you don’t have to trace it. It will be easier for you to see if you put the pins on the other side (so you take them out with your right hand), and you shouldn’t see over your pins; it’s bad for your machine and can break the needle. You should also do a zigzag stitch next to the straight stitch instead of doing two straight stitches, this prevents fraying. You can also use pins to get the corners out, it helps a lot. I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be critical, just trying to help. Thanks for the tutorial :)
Your music is much too loud; it overpowers your voice. Also when you use fabric for demonstrating the not to use so many colors in fabric(flowerdy) because it makes it difficult to see and fo!like your instructions. And...when you draw a a pencil it sho be done in the wrong side off the fabric. Otherwise you're good!
Best video ever. I wish your video was the first to come up instead of the others that were just not as good. Thank you!
great tutorial, thank you... AND your bow tying instructions at the end were better than many of the dedicated bow-tying vids!! brava
Oh wow that’s so sweet thank you!
I love how simply you did this. Nice and clear explanation and easy to follow.
This was so well explained. Thank you! My first bow tie took 4 hours. I messed up a lot too. Wish I'd seen your video first! :)
Thanks for the kind words Fernando. I'm glad that this video was helpful to you. Cheers!
Wow, so easy. Gonna give it a try now
Thank you! I hope it turns out great.
This looks really neat! It's much more simple than the other tutorials I watched, as I'm not very experienced in sewing. I cant wait to use this for my Aziraphale cosplay!
Whoa this is exactly what I'm using it for
I love this video!! I'm glad you showed an easy way to turn it right-side out!
Thanks Lee! I am so glad you liked it
Thanks for adding such a lovely and fruitful video
Thanks for the wonderful words Areeb! Have a good day and pleasant holidays!
Loved this tutorial! I just stated making bow ties! You can use an air compressor to invert fabrics with grip :) going to try out the hand stitch finish!!! Did not realize that was possible!
Thanks for the kind words Louis. Have fun with the hand stitch finishing!
Going to make one for myself now using this pattern of material!. I wear regular ties a lot, but been getting into bow ties a lot lately.
The skill of tying one, you made look very simple and easy to get right here!.😎👍😊
Awesome Marcus! Give it a shot! and thank you for watching! :)
Hi !!!
I made my bow tie , without sewing machine ...just hand sewing , in one hour .
It turn out great .
Thanks !!!
I couldn't find a downloadable pattern so I made my own - if you pause the clip at the beginning when the pattern is against the marked cutting board you can see the correct dimensions - make sure you have the cutting board imperial side up though and not metric

👍👍👍👍
To make this self-tie bowtie fit, measure neck and add 19" to it. Perfect! 😀 Also, it needs some interfacing to add body.
Good call on the interfacing! Great for a more structured look. The benefit of no interfacing in this situation is that it gave the bow tie a more casual look. Thanks for watching!
Good to know
This comment is the only reason I didn’t give up on the idea of seeing a bow tie. Thank you!!! I had no idea how to start with the length so I’m really happy I came across your comment!
Thank you! Length and where to start the bow shape we’re the only questions I still had after watching.
i love this video!! I'm going to try making it tomorrow, thank you so much.

Thank you so much for your feedback! I love reading and responding to comments! And thank you for watching!
This is a great tutorial, but left me with one question: how do you decide the length, and where to place the bow shape?
I would like to know this as well
Easy peasy! Can't wait to try. How long is the fabric though?
Thanks for watching. I will keep your suggestions in the future videos and try to add dimensions. Cheers & Happy Holidays!
wonderful‼
I made this one for my son!
Thank you so much for watching! I am so happy that you made one for your son! I hope he loves it!!!
Using this to help me make my playboy bunny costume for Halloween!

Nicely done! Thanks!!
THANK YOU for watching and taking the time to comment
Thank you very interesting 😊 but you could have made 2 bow ties In that fabric (let's try not to be wasteful when sewing)
Thanks for the kind words. This was a one-of-a-kind project kind of thing ^^ Cheers
Thanks for sharing this tutorial. I usual use slides for my bow ties but I'd like to try this style. Did I miss that link for the pattern piece and dimensions?
Thank you for watching Portia!
Muito obrigado! Eu gostaria de usar só esse tipo de gravata para ir ao trabalho, mas elas são difíceis de achar para comprar.
Great instructions, thanks Laura 😶
and great job keep doing what your doing
excellent video thank you so much
You are welcome!
I love it... thank you for the tutorial... but I have one question... how do you put it on?
What do you mean?
Thank you for your video xx
Woah. Beautiful
Great video instruction! May I please have the pattern/template? Really clear information. TY.
Hey Kim, I haven't got a pattern for it. I looked on all of my hard drives. Perhaps I will revisit this in the future and make a physical pattern. Until then, I would trace over an existing bow tie if you have one, or search for a template on google, or Pinterest. Good Luck! xoxo Laura

There is a free bow tie template listed here.
@@JanG0110 are there any in simple photo forms? Because you have to sign up with all your billing info to get those downloads :(
Perfect, but next time use dolid colors; it's easier for us
This video was very informative thank you i now who how to make a bow tie
Hey Plue, thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it!
Great job learned a lot thx
Glad you enjoyed it
Good job!
Thank you =)
where did you get the template for the bow tie? i can't find a good one
Collard shirt-check, bazer-check, slacks-check, dress shoes-check, fancy socks-check, up next is my bow tie, then becoming the ceo of a snazzy company
That's good will you give me that template.. 😀
where could I find this stencil?
Hey Jazz, there are many available online, but what I did was trace a bowtie I already had, and then I added 1cm additional fabric, all around the stencil!
Hi where can I find this pattern pls
Where can we get the pattern to trace on fabric
Exactly that’s what I’m wondering
I suppose you could try printing a screenshot of the video and making a trace? Let me know how it goes! Cheers
Patterns are available online, some free, others for a few dollars. Just google "bow tie pattern" or something like that. OR....if you have a bow tie already, just trace it out.
I’m going to make one, but should how much should I cut for my fabric? Can I use an already sewed bow tie as my “pattern”? Please let me know, thanks!
I'm glad you've found the video useful. As for measurements, I will try to add them in the future videos. You could extrapolate your own measurements as this project was one-of-a-kind creation type of project. Wonderful Holidays!
Where is the pattern????
what type of fabric
flanle probly
How do I get pattern?
Where are the instructions for the pattern?
come join in a live stream MONDAY WEDNESDAY or FRIDAY from 9-12 and I can talk you through it :)
What about measures of fabric?????
Thank you for watching and your suggestion. Perhaps in the future projects =)
there is no adjustment so it may be too long or too short after it is tied?? Too late to make an adjustment at that point without cutting and resewing it.
Thanks Frank - I will keep it in mind for future bow tie projects. This one-of-a-kind project was made with Alex's help for measurements while I was making it. Cheers!
Very nice " awesome "
Thank you for watching!
Please how long will I cut
👍
Can you do a pre-tied bowtie?
Pattern?

Oh wait I don’t think you were seeing over your pins, I think it was just sped up and looked that way.

Thanks for the feedback Rosana, I hope you were able to figure out the bowtie despite the issues :)
Where is the pattern?
I will have to remake it, sorry, I can't find the pattern
Where is the pattern?
