These are a bit more fun to do than the same thing all the time. Check it out......

Bet you're making swirls right now. Marie did a great job on her tute and Randy you added some nice complexity with the new swirls.

Debbie & Tom... it's 22 gauge square wire (dead soft), I use it in all of my wraps. IMO, it works best. All of my wire also comes from Rio Grande.

Randy that looks super, Friday night is wrapping night!!! I am going to try it, I actually read your tut and Marie's, yesterday and you guys made it look easier! I really want to be able to do it!!!!! The PMC class was a dud, they said I had to take the advanced class to learn to set cabs which will be another $100 plus firing fees, so I guess I am back to learning to wrap, ughghgh!!!! You guys are so generous with sharing your tricks!!!

Yeah, maybe the next time that we're all together, we can get her to sit still long enough to do one. ;D lol .....BTW Amber, it's my turn to buy dinner, you and Tony need to come back down so I can teach you some wire wrapping!
