#rd attempt getting closer to where I want to be except I got in a hurry that's a no no and cut off one of his legs in the trimming process. Woven body brown and olive with olive dubbing and mono eyes need to be a size smaller. Legs and tail are goose biots.

Dick this fly is beautiful! Excellent work!

Dick, you do have to keep constant tension on the cross-stitch yarn, but it will work.

I tried embroidery thread and it didn't have any body to it and couldn't keep it tight and it looked like crap. So I'm still in the experimental mode. I did see some small diameter yarn there I wanted to try but the color selection wasn't to great.

I saw that stuff, Allen, and wondered if it was useful.
Now I know

I just use cross-stitch yarn.  It's actually 6 threads twisted together, and splits really easily.

Don't think a group would work we'd have to rent the Silverdome to house all the addicts.
