I bought the cutting wheel from a local restaurant supply warehouse. I have seen them online in varying prices. This one was under $20. They are called a 5 (or 6) wheel pastry cutter. Before I got it, I always cut one strip at a time. No biggy, it is not that hard to do it either way.
I had no idea Colette Peters did them this way. I learned it from another decorator I knew a few years ago.

I did forget to add, if you want to texturize the bow, do it BEFORE you cut it into strips as the extra pressure will distort the strips.

Excellent! thanks for the tip! I'll make sure to print this off just in case there's another crash icon_biggrin.gif

I LOVE this tutorial... makes it much easier to do the bows without worrying about coloring the "glue" to hold all the loops.. icon_smile.gif

Thank you sooo much for this tutorial once again!
