S&T Filet Dragonfly

Don't forget to vote --->
Poll ends today!



That's a 16 x 20 inch frame the dragonfly is sitting in.

I made this for a dear friend of mine as my way of saying 'thank you'. She's in the middle of redecorating her kitchen in red and she put it right over the little breakfast nook table.
