How about that tie.


I quickly stitched the Groom's tie.  And I started to work on the vertebra and ribs, but quickly realized I didn't have a good place to start or tie off, as the ribcage is open.  You must be careful not to let the thread travel behind the ribs.  I did the vertebra first starting at the top and going straight down.  Then I needed the lapels to bury threads for the ribs.  I may regret stitching the lapels before the coat as the lapels are "above" the coat.  But I will take a chance.  Happy Stitching!

  1. I think you did the right thing stitching the lapels when you did. Love the tie, but those teeth are a riot!

  2. Aren't they funny. They will look even better when I put in the line between the uppers and lowers. He is one happy guy!
