Is you talking about a Bow as a weapon Bow or is you talking about a Ribbon Bow?
I got a book with a ribbon bow but want to make sure which you talking about for sure so I can change it if I have to. Seen someone with a weapon bow on their cover so just wanted to make sure I got the understanding.
Thanks....This looks like it will be fun. LOL.
It's a ribbon bow.
