Fair Project

So I'm showing off at the county fair for the first time. Thank you Sydney and Rawhide for being so helpful and patient with me while I tried to figure out the second interweave. I was finally able to figure out how to add that second string with much trial and error. I'm not completely happy with the way it turned out...the handle is twisted. I can't believe I let it do that. And right after rawhide gave me pointers on keeping that from happening. I decided not to redo the button again. Not sure the string could have took anymore over and undering...LOL But other than that I'm happy with the piece. I'm also very excited I can do a second interweave, so the time was time well spent. Sorry about the quality.

And here is an extra picture. This started out as something else entirely but I cut a plaiting string while tying off and here we go, my first bosal..LOL

Hey, that looks great! Good for you, going to the county fair. Save your ribbons - I saved mine, and eventually had enough to make a king-sized quilt out of them!

That turned out great!! The interweaves look good just the right amount to break up the black. I'm glad ya got it worked out. Let us know how ya do at the fair.

Those are both nice looking pieces. I think most folks would be glad to have them.

Thanks everyone! The fair is next month. I'll let you all know. *fingers crossed*

I'm glad you mentioned the handle rawhide, I studied it for quite a while wondering if I should add a brown strip in the middle somewhere, as you can see I decided against it.

That looks really nice man. I'm sure you'll win it hands down. Good luck!
