Make yourself two templates, one of a large triangle (double the width you'd like your tie) and a smaller triange.
Draw the shapes out on to your fabric.

Use a ruler to extend the length of your triangles. Make the smaller half and larger half separately and draw out the triangles to a length that you are happy with.
Cut out the two shapes.

Decorate the front of the larger triangle if you want.
Pin up the two rough bottom edges of the larger triangle.
Sew along the bottom so that the edge is left nice and neat, repeat this with the smaller triangle.
Fold the ties in half so that the wrong side is facing the outside and pin along the sides.
Sew along the edges.
Fold in half and you're ready to face the town.

Very nice... I will definitely give this a try for my sister's fiance. He refuses to wear any other type of tie. :P
