Thanks all!! This is my 3rd attempt at wrapping a cross.... the first 2 were miserable failures..hehe. I really had to work hard to convince the wire to go where I wanted. I'm pretty happy with the way this one turned out but it does have some hickeys... the next one will be a bit easier I hope...
Sending you a PM Joi....
Thanks again!! Dan

Wow! Very neat Dan! That looks like it would be pretty difficult but you did a fine job. Haven't seen that kid of a wrapped cross before either....mel

Beautiful and original, Dan! And your crosses have such an original shape! I really had to work hard to convince the wire to go where I wanted. Dan I've noticed too that sometimes these wires have their own personality. Adrian

A very clever way of wrapping the cross.

Thanks everybody ;D you guys are great! I'm working on another this evening. Cher.. It's tumble polished.. I don't have a vibe yet. I think I'll get one to help speed up the final polish stages but I'll still run 'em through the tumblers for the coarse stages. Susan.. Yep it's DS... well.. it was when I started.. hehe. I bought some HH Copper wire today.. gonna try some weaving hehe... Thanks again! I love the exuberant responses!! I'll keep making 'em! ;D Dan

Excellent!!! Your weaves appear to be even and no bumpies (GUESS what I'm having trouble with today!) ...great job. I love the way you chose to wrap this. Wonderful work - on the stone and on the wrap.
