These are the first wraps I feel I can show. They're Morgan Hill Jasper except for the Ocean Jasper and silver (I know the photos look a bit yellow) I'm still learning and practicing feverishly for an upcoming project. I've even put cabbing on hold for the time being. So, lemme have it. Thoughts, suggestions, etc. Steve

first time wrapper??? I think you've been holding out on us! WOW I'm in awe! Those are amazing! They look like you kidnapped one of the wrappers on this site!

Cool... Is that OJ in the last pic on the right? I like the spirals on either side of that one.... and I didn't notice the little loop at the bottom of the Poppy until I read Kims post..that's a nice touch!! They all look great!!!

Well Steve, to be honest, your photos are a little on the yellow side and the cab on the right in the first pic could use some Opticon. ;D
Oh yea, and the wraps are great. Like Tweetie said, it looks like you've been studying the other wrappers here and added your own flair to to the mix to come up with your own style. I envy you for being able to do such a nice job. But you're putting cabbing on the back burner? So what's the upcoming project?

the bails are a bit twirly-whirly for my liking, but you've nailed the "framework" beautifully.

If that is your first wrap you are truly a natural. Very creative as well! The stones are funky!

VERY nicely done! I like the bottom right, with the little loop and the way you framed the stone. Excellent!!

Great wraps. I like the curls on the 2nd one in the top pic. And the loop in the bottom is a really cool idea KimJ

I gotta admit there's another batch that came before this, so these aren't my first. These are the first ones I feel comfortable showing off. But, as Ed says, I basically figured it out by reading the posts here and learning that way. So I gotta send out a big thank you to the RTH board. I'm making two wraps for a coworker. But now I'm off to practice more. I'll come out of my cave soon and be back to my cabbin and RTH surfing self. Steve
