I found this great tutorial for Onesie ties over at Brassy Apple. I love the simplicity of the little Onesies. I started thinking, maybe I could give this a little more of a big boy look. So I started playing around and came up with this baby onesie big boy tie.
It is a simple tie that is attached at the knot only. Leaving the tie to move like a real tie on a basic t-shirt or onesie.
Want to make a few of your own??? Here is how…
Onesie Big Boy Neck Tie
T shirt or Onesie
Iron on Interfacing
6×18 inch Piece of Fabric
Pattern 3mo-3T {Below}
Right click on the pattern and save to your computer to print.
Iron interfacing to wrong side of fabric.
Place pattern piece onto fabric and cut 2. Cut top into a small scoop or straight across. This will depend on how you want the neck line to look.
Pin together tie pieces right sides together.
Stitch around entire outside edge of tie leaving a 1 inch section open for turning.
Turn right sides out, push out corners and press. Ironing open edge to inside.
Stitch from bottom of knot, around bottom of tie. Continuing up to the bottom of the knot on the opposing side. Do not sew across bottom of knot. (side to side)
Take a small piece of interfacing and iron it to the inside of the t-shirt. In the center where the tie will go.
Place tie onto center of shirt. Pin into place. I use 2 or 3 pins to hold tie into place.
Stitch around knot of tie close to the edge.
All finished and ready for your little man to wear.
Perfect for my little man. Especially on these hot summer months.
On a side note. The flapping tie is great for a built in bib or face wipe in an emergency. LOL.
Have a great week!!!

Super cute! I have so wanted to buy these for my boys!
Oh my gosh- you are a genius! Now why didn’t I think of that?! I have a baby shower to go to this month, and you can bet I’ll be making her little boy one of these… and then a few for my own little one! I made one for him several months ago, but the applique was attached all the way around, not just at the top. I love your idea- Thanks for sharing 🙂
So cute! Your little man is an excellent model! 🙂 I love the idea of not attaching the tie all around so it flaps. Very neat.
Very cute & easy!
Making my grandson one for his first birthday. The theme for the party is Neckties and Monkeys. He has a little monkey that is his favorite toy, and every month he got his picture taken with a onesie, with the number of the month he was, so thats where the theme came from. Thanks for posting the pattern!
