PROGRESS

ok, so i measured the tab
it's 5/8 " wide
i want the panel to be 10"
start with 14 tabs
guessing the ribbon needs to be
2 x the width + 4"( 2 x 2") for the sides
so, starting with a length of ribbon that is 24"
put a pin @ 22" on the spool ..
start threading the tabs like the tutorial
http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=33593.0

stopping @ the pin
continue as the tutorial says
the tabs want to turn sideways ....
BUT, you use 2 x the width .. so this row will PROBABLY
use 28 tabs ..
now that i have the hang of it, it's easy peasy
altho, there IS the constant flipping ..
