THAt's kick ass. I see what you were saying about stubs, it's really not that bad at all.

Excellent. How do you get the single strand of thread (the stem or vine) to bend and stay put?

Thanks...Dan, Tom Kirkman posted a technique of overlaying thread onto a wrap a couple weeks back, I figured I'd try it out with this pattern. I used 811 color preserver while laying the threads into position. As the CP dries, the threads eventually stay where I want them. Something I'll try again someday.

That is a beautiful wrap Mike. I like everything about it. The threadwork is exceptional.
