ABSTRACT:
A fixture and method for center-loop bow making is provided. The fixture is made of a one-piece resilient material such as a flat piece of neoprene, and includes two lobes which form a necked inlet which leads into an enlarged pocket. The necked inlet releasably retains ribbon placed therethrough into the pocket and is aided by the frictional characteristics of the fixture material and the expanding ribbon material. The lobes are designed to permit a center-loop to be formed over the center of the bow and also to facilitate tying of the bow around the ribbon held in the enlarged pocket. The lobes resiliently bend out of the way to release the ribbon held in the pocket after the bow is made. The method includes forming the bow from ribbon in the fixture and looping the last portion of the ribbon over the center of the bow to form a center-loop which covers the center of the bow. The method also includes bending the lobes of the fixture out of the way to release the bow formed therein.
