#88...tie strapping

I bought this vintage tie at a resale shop for $1 And turned it into a new strap for my camera, following these instructions

by Derek & Lauren for design*sponge.

The pattern called for a strip of fabric about 23 inches x 4 inches. I opened up the tie (see below), removed the liner, and did some seaming to get my strip to the right length. Other than that small modification, I followed the instructions step-by-step. The whole project took less than 30 minutes to complete.
