I agree. It's been a great time. This trade has pushed me to out of my comfort zone. I feel much more confident now and will be building like a mad man!  Thank you to everyone.  I love this stuff!

All three bow trades was a pleasure to watch and the amount of beautiful bows made was outstanding! I was glad to be part of it and to lend a hand where I could.

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

Bottom line I get from the bow trade is like what JonW said in his post a good way to meet people with the same thing in mind.Always good to be be with birds of the same feather.Putting faces together with the forum names.Absolutely no bother and a pleasure to me in making a bow for someone.

Yep...even though they're not over yet, I'd say they were an overwhelmingly positive experience for nearly everyone.  Well done to all!  Josh

It would be cool to have a massive image only thread of all the bows made in the bow trades and put on top like a sticky.  Every year just keep adding to it. It could have all the bows in tje bow trade and the gifts made in the christmas trade too.

Thank you for the excitement of watching all the build-alongs, and for helpful advice given across the trades by many. And in particular thanks to Fred for all of his work and encouragement on the open trade and for enabling thereby, all to participate.
I love it when a plan B comes together....
