This first one in an oval stone This one is a teardrop stone Thanks for looking. Tammy

The wire goes so well with the stone.

Rich, I think the secrets to a good swirl are to allow yourself enough wire, about an inch a swirl, to use one motion, start to finish, to make it and steady pressure, don't lightenn your pressure as you swirl. There you have it how to swirl, in a nut shell.

Thank you all so much, I have been trying to think outside the box lately. I think that over all my wraps will be better for it. Again, thank you for your positive comments.
