| Lesson 7: French Revolution and Empire Period Tying a Regency Tie Page 2 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| My son came home for a 12 hour visit while on a spring concert tour, dressed in his tux, so I subjected him to the torture of standing still while I tried my hand at tying some of the neckcloths on a real person. I am glad he was so patient & gracious about getting tied in knots when he could have been sleeping after a long, tiring day! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Mailcoach, a good classic winter coat scarf tie. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The Maharatta. Nice & easy: wrap from front to back, twist the ends around each other once & tuck the ends back under the jacket | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| The Obaldeston. Who named these knots, anyway? This one looks easy but it takes some time to get the knot to look like the pictures in the directions. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ah, yes, the Napoleon, can you tell my son's sense of humor? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| While doing this lesson, I wanted to know more about ties in general. Following Tara's link to the book, Ties, by Avril Hart was a good move. The illustrations in this one are wonderful & the text is interesting as well. It has a good clear Neckclothtania picture on p. 42. |

| After struggling with the fabric, the stair rails & the kid, I was interested to see these pictures of what the neckcloths looked like when not tied by bumble fingered mothers. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
