Here is my first attempt.





I'm not happy with the writing so I'll see if I can improve on that but I doubt it. This one is on a pin but I can also add the stretchy string to each one and people can use the string to tie it onto their shifter or their visor or whatever. They can cut it off too.

I just spoke with Shiela regarding the magnetic ribbons. She is going to try to have her supplier do a special rush job. We'll know Monday. I'll post as soon as we know.

Patty,

If the lettering is really difficult, you might just want to put the initials TC on it. We all know what its for, and thats whats important.

Either way I'd like one. Thanks for doing this.

It's my pleasure to do this. The writing isn't hard but since the ribbon is pourous the paint comes close to bleeding. I'm going to try something thicker but I don't think I'll get the fineness I need to write.

Patty,

I like the idea and I like the silver ribbon. I'm sure they will look great. Tom would approve.

Patty,

The ribbons are wonderful and I can tell you with 100% certainty that Tom is honored and as he would put it "gum-smacked" that anyone would do this for him.

Thank you so much and I would love to have one to put in his "baby"!

The ribbon looks wondeful! Could you make a couple ribbons for my sister and me as well? I'd like to put it next to a picture of my dad. Thanks so much for all you are doing.
