Dragonflies

by Mike Vickery

I was cruising around, visiting some other stitchers' web sites and albums when I saw one who had this project in progress - the person said it was a freebie from Crazy For Cross Stitch's web site, and when I found it, I decided I just HAD to do it too. Unfortunately, at this time, I can't remember WHOSE web site I was visiting - but I'd like to give them credit for enabling me.

Update, June 24, 2006: it is no longer available as a freebie, but Amy and Mike Vickery might know which issue featured it. Visit their web site at www.vickerycollection.com. Hopefully you can purchase a back issue or find it on e-bay!

We had a heck of a time trying to figure out the perfect mat/frame combination, but finally struck upon a great solution - we tried a combination of yellow, pink, and periwinkle mats, but nothing screamed "perfect" until this - it really ties the colors together, and emphasizes the dragonflies.

Framed!
