You and me both, brother. Just ordered several fabric swatches. It's only a matter of time now until the ****** and pillaging of my wallet begins.

My Hober ties are easily my favorites.

lovely. however, the need for swatches is apparent. the colors are very different from hober's site.

Sorry for the iPhone photos.

Thank you.
Awesome tie.

I like the self-tipping.

one question for hober - why does borrelli do their 7 fold unlined horizontally and you do it diagonally?

 

[Navi]

Diagonally looks better. Can't really tell unless you're up close but it's a nice touch.

David, haven't had the chance to try any of your ties yet but I look forward to when I can. Your tutorials for tie-making, PS making etc are hugely helpful! Really great stuff. Some of the neat patterns you make are drool worthy... Actually pretty much everything you make is drool worthy!

I hate clicking on this thread. There is so much want. I've been recommending David for years now based on things like this alone. Why dont I own a Hober yet?

I think I need to get the ball rolling here.
