Title: so proud
Post by: jamie on August 13, 2007, 09:37:25 pm
i showed my daughter how to reverse wrap the other day. she walked up to me today and she was telling me about her day and spinning up some cordage and not even looking at what she was doing. she was making necklaces so i gave her a bunch of my less than desireble points and she made up 4 of em. the one shes wearing is bone.with her initials burned in. peace

Yea Bob, but they don't!   Mine is 36 now and I sure do miss that lil girl. :(
  Jamie, She must get her looks from her Mom. ;D ...actually I can see you in her.  Cordage is quite simple once learned. Its one of those things that most can do without thinking about it.    Pat

Pretty cool Jamie, how old is your daughter? Mine is nine, she has helped me on a bow or two. She would love it if i show her how to do that, she is real artsy crafty.  My wife actually taught me to reverse wrap. When I first started to build my own strings I was struggling, couldn't get the darn thing to stay together. My wife said gimme that and showed me how. I asked her how she knew how to do that she said I have been doin since I was a kid. Needless to say I felt like an idiot.

That is so funny after Justin showed my daughter, Susannah, how to use the string thingy (technical term)  ;D for making bow strings, she started making a bunch of necklaces and sold them to her friends.  ;D She made made a pretty penny for a 10 year old.  Kept a record book and everything.  I need to post a pic.  Maybe they can make an even trade. She turns 11 in a few weeks...mane is it flying by!  :-\
