Hmm, interesting question. I've been thinking about it too. I looked up some of Steph's FAQs in Eclipse, and I think it might represent Bella's desire to end her life as a human and be a vampire. Here's what Steph said: "In both Twilight and New Moon Bella commits to becoming a vampire without once really examining the price she'll have to pay. In Eclipse Bella fully comprehends that price. Then she chooses to pay it. Every aspect of the novel resolves around this point, every back story, every relationship, every moment of action." So, in short, the ribbon represents Bella's hold on life, and then by the end, she decides to sever it, she's only holding on (by a small string) long enough to get married. I think that sounds about right! Lol!

I always thought the ribbon represented Bella having to choose between Edward and Jacob but I really like Twilighting's explanation...it makes the most sense to me

I have no idea but it would have made more sense on the new moon cover with all the red scarves and such in Voltera

i think since Victoria is killed that the broken ribbon means the pattern is broken

I interpreted the broken ribbon as a representation of Bella's broken bond with Jacob (in that part of the saga at least), or her departure from her old life as a human.

Eclipse Cover: The broken ribbon represents choice, as in the book Bella must choose between her love for vampire Edward Cullen, and her friendship with werewolf Jacob Black. Meyer also stated that the ribbon represents the idea that Bella can't break away completely from her human life.

As I know, it signifies Bella breaking from being human (which is by choosing Edward over Jacob) but like ripping a ribbon, it is not a clean break...
