The new FTF Fly Challenge is any pattern that is an imitation of a stonefly nymph. Doesn't have to be something you tied recently or even a unique variation that you dreamed up yourself.
Post a pattern this month and you will be entered into a random drawing for one of two prizes.

eyes: XL bead chain
tails: turkey feather
body:black yarn(mostly),brown, green, red yarn and clear sparkle yarn..coffee grinder blend
