Jeannine made this from Tyler's mission ties










When Tyler returned from his Mission in Arkansas in 2002, he brought back with him 109 ties. Jeannine being the creative one decided to put them to use and make a quilt of his tie collection and parts of his mission suits. She designed and sewed this quilt with great love and detail. Each tie is on here 3 times in different places. It weighs a ton. The very middle red tie says, "Go Hogs" for the college team the Arkansas Razor Backs. All dark squares are from his suits and the white squares are from his shirts.
