You are so welcome! Thank you for visiting, Deborah. Congratulations on your new granddaughter!

Ahhh… Thank you, Martina! I’m working on another wreath this week! Thank you for stopping by!

Hi Maria,
You are so welcome! These are so quick and easy to make with the jig! To answer your question, using 1-1/2″ ribbon on the jig with the markings and skewers 1-1/8″ apart, 45″ of ribbon would give you plenty to make the bow, tie it, and have extra to trim the ends.
If you use a smaller jig with the spacing 7/8″ apart, it would take less than 30″ of 5/8″ ribbon. It really depends on how far you space the skewers on the jig and the width of the ribbon you use.
It is so inexpensive to make these! Have fun making them!

It depends on how big you want the bow to be. The skewers placed 1″ apart make a bow about 4″ wide. If you want a 6″ bow, then you would place the skewers 1-1/2″, an 8″ bow, the measurements would be 2″ apart. Keep in mind that you would need wider ribbon to make larger bows that look right.

The peach ribbon for the bow in the picture is 1″ ribbon but I have used up to 2″ ribbon for the larger jig, too. I haven’t tried ribbon wider than 2″. If you need to make a larger one using larger ribbon, just space the wooden skewers out farther. I use the smaller jig for smaller ribbon.
