This type of bow I do that requires absolutely no tying what so ever!  This bow is held together with some double-stick permanent tape. It consists of a series of folds. I used around 3-3.5 yds of ribbon. The size of the bow is dictated by the size of the gift I am wrapping. I make sure each side is even and not lop-sided. I use a little strip of double stick tape to hold the fold down. I then cut a small piece of ribbon to wrap around the center of the ribbon to complete the look. I double stick tape the bow down onto the box. I like using this bow with the grosgrain stitch ribbon.  To do this bow, the ribbon must be the same pattern/design on both sides.
