Not a great deal of weaving in this one but I'm happy with how it came out. I think it's my neatest one so far. Self-collected Stone from Burro Creek ![](https://res.cloudinary.com/gkyhn/image/upload/v1721701750/inxf4e5c4esvbkyocejz.jpg)

Looks great to me. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Weaving really hurts my hands. I used to do a lot more of it, but all I do now is the occasional bail. It's a good skill to have.

That's a nice one-good balance. The twisted wire with the woven bail look nice together. Patty

Great job! I especially like the "small touches" of dressy mixed in with a basic wrap--not too much, just the right amount to add interest. Plus you're working with silver, which is a bear, at least for me. And I love that it's a self-collected stone.

That really did come out lovely. Quite elegant ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Very pretty! I'm imagining the patience required to make all those little twists and turns, very delicate work done beautifully.

I love the use of negative space above and below on this one Gary!

Thank you Pat! Very, very nice! I like it lots. Thanks Robin, I appreciate it. Thanks! Glad you liked it. Looks great to me. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Weaving really hurts my hands. I used to do a lot more of it, but all I do now is the occasional bail. It's a good skill to have. Thanks Tela! This is actually the very first time I tried it with silver. I think I'm ready to dive into something a little more complex. That's a nice one-good balance. The twisted wire with the woven bail look nice together. Patty Thanks Patty! I was surprised how much the twisted wire showed in the pics. Thanks Thomas! You really have a good eye for design! Thanks Gary! That means a lot coming from you. Not a great deal of weaving in this one but I'm happy with how it came out. I think it's my neatest one so far. Self-collected Stone from Burro Creek Very nice! I still haven't decided if I have the talent- or patience- for weaving so I have yet to try. Nice work! Thanks Mike! I think it's mostly a bit of practice with a good dose of patience! Great job! I especially like the "small touches" of dressy mixed in with a basic wrap--not too much, just the right amount to add interest. Plus you're working with silver, which is a bear, at least for me. And I love that it's a self-collected stone. Thanks Susan! I try to keep them pretty simple, but it doesn't always happen. Fantastic! That really looks great Thanks so much!

I'm imagining the patience required to make all those little twists and turns, very delicate work done beautifully. Thanks I appreciate it! I love the use of negative space above and below on this one Gary! Thanks Jason! I love using negative space. It gives me a place to tuck the wire ends in and hide them.

Sorry! ![(sorry-sign)](//storage.proboards.com/1258779/images/EnYXQqqoMEgOBCoCZrKS.gif) I just went back and changed it and then saw this post. I kind of knew I was putting the wrong name as I originally typed it. My wife is Diane.
