Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

You did an awesome job on your bow Lily!!! 

I didn't build my first bow until I was 50 years old, so just think about how good you will be, and how many bows you will build by the time you're my age.

I think you have a real good chance and winning bow of the month, keep your fingers crossed ;)

Wow!

What an excellent experience for you and her.

Everything you two have decided to share here is absolutely priceless.

Without a doubt, seeing this made my day.

Keep up the great work, Lily 8)

Nice work Lilly. I see a future bowyer in you yet, even though it can get a little boring. Gets my vote for BOTM.

Great story, glad she is doing good, Landon is responding well also, still in Chicago for treatment but doing much better. :) That is very nice work she did with that bow in all aspects and a beautiful little girl to boot. I know she is proud of it and Dad has to be proud also as he should be. Great job Lily you put some of us old Boyer's to shame with that one.  :)
