Beautiful soap @Servant4Christ Congratulations!
Oh my land, both those cuts are beautiful! I really like your colors, too. I've only got 5 bushels of apples left to process - hoping to get 3 done today - and then.... We're getting more!🤣 Soapmaking has been calling me. I can't wait to get a bunch made for Christmas gifts!I know the challenge is over, but...I thought I would share this since I shared my failed attempts and have been so baffled by this particular challenge. Early yesterday I made a batch of soap, poured the colors back into the main pot in the stacked circle pattern from one of the videos. I poured that into the loaf mold and as an after thought decided to run the handle end of my wooden spoon through the batter as we had done in the feathered mantra swirl. Just a bit ago, I unmolded the loaf and cut the first 6 bars like I normally would.

Then I got to wondering what it would look like with the horizontal cut.....so I turned the last chunk of the loaf over for that cut - .... the closest thing I got to the feathered mantra swirl yet. It's not quite there, BUT I really like the way it looks. Thank you @Mobjack Bay for the challenge! My brain is stretching.....

Thank you! I have to be honest, I have been really jealous of your apple wealth!!Oh my land, both those cuts are beautiful! I really like your colors, too.

@ackosel Did I miss a wreath pic somewhere? I love wreaths and would love to see this one!Thank you! I have to be honest, I have been really jealous of your apple wealth!!
Wealth, not wreath. She has an abundance of apples that are being processed right now. Lots and lots of apple goodness. I'm doing the same, but not THAT many!@ackosel Did I miss a wreath pic somewhere? I love wreaths and would love to see this one!

Have you seen the October challenge? Better get crackin' on it!Great news - our second bin of apples has been delayed a couple weeks, so I just *might* have time to make a couple batches of soap before it comes!
That one scares the liver out of me! But maybe I'm brave enough to try. There will surely be enough coaching and comradery to help me along.😊Have you seen the October challenge? Better get crackin' on it!
I've read that here. And thought I would be okay. Then, blam!@justsomeguy The colors are so pretty, but those floral fragrances will get you every time!
Love it!I love those colors and your pattern!!
