Just had to try and see if I could still do cross wraps seeing all the wonderful work you guys are doing gave me the itch to try some again. Not much but nice to know I could still do it the old fashioned way. I used about every manufacturer and size thread you can find. The Purple is in BVs honor even thought of throwing in some pink. I blame this on BV and MJ, thanks for stirring the old fires. This is on the rod of many colors witht he Walleye. Guides coming soon all with fades.

Another rod which reminds me of Darth Vader. Once I saw all those different shades of Purple, I knew it was the poison thread, lol. Glad to see you doing crosswraps, very nicely done. A Chevy Snakeskin with a Chevy border, cool stuff.

Very nice Doc. I have been wanting to do a pattern like this one. I got to play around with it to get the boxes a 3D affect.

Doc...I beleive you responded to a wrap I ( or someone) did by saying "kind of makes me pine for my old crosswrapping days"...hopefully it brought back some of the creative enjoyment of those days, and you feel the urge to do some more again. I feel great about you blaming me and Billy for this behavior!!! (blame it on Madiera!!lol)...anyhow, very nice wrap, and I/we hope to see more someday soon.

The old diamond wrap gang out here will put a contract out on you two if you get me going again. They have had it their way for a long time since I took to weaving so seriously. I do have to admit doing this one got my mind going on all the possibilities. When I was doing it I was reminded of some feather inlays I have seen. Thanks for the push and kind compliments. Wish you could see the DVD and CD that Mike Barkley made of my wraps and the music he put to it for me. It is a kick.
