Proof of this is thi outstanding success of a New Eng land woman who invaded the neck tie industry five years ago, when she made her first gut necktie. Julie Taylor is a small, bustling New England housewife, mother of three sons, who stitched up a gift necktie five years ago and now has a national business on her hands. Today she and 50 employes turn out 150 dozen ties a day in a con verted butter-tub mill in Ludlow, Vermont. "I got bored with the usual neck ties I saw in the stores," says Mrs. Taylor, "so I thought I would try making some out of unusual x laDrics. i inea mem uui uu itinm;, t friends and neighbors, and t h e n took a box of them around to a few stores in Vermont and Connec ticut. Before 1 knew it I had more orders than I could turn out on the old family sewing machine." Mrs. Taylor branched out into the big-business bracket when she was approached by various manufac turers' representatives who offered to sell her distinctive ties io stores t.lrournoui tr.e country, ane ium OOUgni a lariimuum; in v eimum ita a base of operations, then moved her business to a grist mill and then to the larger and even more picturesque butter-tub mill. "I use all kinds of fabrics," says Mrs. Taylor "decorator fab rics, dress fabrics, anything I can find that looks interesting and un usual. Many are imported, and now I'm starting to design some fabrics of my own. "The first ties 1 made were special-occasion ties designed for wear at Christmas parties, cock tail parties, special sports events and so on. Then I made some ties keyed to men's occupations, sports and hobbies tics for golfers, fish ermen, sailing enthusiasts, farm ers, bankers and various other categories. These were highly suc cessful as gifts. ' I discovered that a lot of peo ple were collecting the ties trying to get one of every design I made. That gave me the idea of making limited editions.' "That's why I make only a few f each design, and turn out new ones almost every day." Among Mrs. Taylor's most en thusiastic fans are her three boys Justus, 17, Lee, 12 and Jona than. 9. "They think it's fine," says she, "to have an over-normal supply of new neckties on hand."
