Dang, Marie, you just keep getting better and better, and more and more artistry shows up in your wraps. I just can't imagine what it would be like to be able to do those intricate, gorgeous swirls and wraps on those little lakers!
And where did you learn how to make a Coptic Cross? I mean, Holy WOW!

Thanks!!
Tom- I saw a similiar version of that cross somewhere on the net, and decided to try it, I just put my own little twist on it hehehe, it's not all that hard to do really, looks harder than what it is. Has a lot of measuring of every little thing tho.
Thanks again!!

I love all of them. Especially the 3rd stone wrap. May I copy that one? and maybe the fourth one? And the fifth one too? I love them. They are yelling at me to try it. I gotta try. But one question, How do you put a loop through a loop without getting it kinked up?

Amy - Ummm...it's kinda hard to explain how I do this...it's all just madness!! LOL pretty much wrapping the wires around each other. I also do all my wires at once for all my "frills", not individually...so each of those loops has 4 wires, and all 4 wires were worked at the same time...does that help???
Jackie - the bail is kinda cool huh? I am really liking doing it now!!
Thanks all!!

I just can't hardly believe how good you have gotten in just a short while Marie! That just means all that talent was just sitting there waiting to be used! What a beautiful job you have done on all of these!

Thank you Marie. I will try it. I have madness. I will try to channel my madness into the wires.
