Someone, which may be Winney, wrote a tutorial on tying the professional bow. I've looked and hunted but cant find it. I'm being waylaid by other posts  which are just far tooooo distracting. 
Please could someone help.   
This bow isnt for me, but as an addition to a gift to a fellow TTer. (crawler aye?)   
Please someone help!!!!   Wendy

Daphne's bow tying technique works better than any I've ever seen... for me, anyway.  I have a print out of it myself!  For some reason, though, I just can't commit the exact steps to memory.  Which leads me to ask something I've been meaning to ask since I first printed the directions out...

... Daphne, are you a lefty?

... Daphne, are you a lefty?

NO.... why? Does it all feel backwards to you?
Look at the pictures in a mirror and try it that way!

My mother is a lefty and I learned to vacuum and iron 'lefty' but didn't think I did anything else that way. I'll have to pay more attention!

It DOES feel "backwards" to me, but then again, maybe I just tie bows weird!

Funny!!!

Shelli, you maybe correct. I found that the reason I was having trouble ,was because I was doing it backwards compared to Daphne. My way doesnt work, BUT Daphnes does!!!.  Wendy
