Yep, me... ;D I finally got the wire I ordered but I should have ordered more. Maybe will when I get some more money. Can't buy much with :2cents: anymore ;D so here are the new wraps.... Turitella Agate - cab from Amber originally Ralph's cast off - yes, Amy I got the idea for the swirl in the side wires from you. Isn't imitation the sincerest form of flattery? Thanks for the idea, hope you don't mind my using it. wrapped in 22GA Silver, dead soft Imperial Jasper - cab from Steve - my first heart shape and I call this one "Cross My Heart" - never named a wrap before, wow, two firsts in one day! wrapped in 22GA Copper, dead soft (I need to use half hard copper from now on) Thanks for checking them out.

Really nice! Don't mind at all. The swirls look better on your cab than they did on mine. In fact they go perfect with that stone. Love that bail too. It all fits together just perfectly. The heart is nice too.

Thank you all. I'm partial to the Turitella too Jo. Amy, I thought the swirls just set off the swirls in that cab so well. It took a bit of doing to get them to look at least similar. Guess I need more practice. I'm glad you like them. Nate, thank you. When are you going to join the "swirly" club? hmmmm? LOL

That turitella is gorgeous! the small loops which secure the stone are so discrete,yet match perfectly with the pattern.
