About to Tie the Knot

Today I am tying flies to be used as boutonnieres for the groomsmen in a wedding next month. Whether it is a fly or not is debateable because the bride just wants feathers mingled together on one side of a hook so she can attached a safety pin to the other. Fortunately, she emailed a picture of what she had in mind. Without that it would have been much more complicated with many more “samples” tied for her approval. It’s been fun, though. Really….it has.
