Here's what Linda says about her project!

"My project wasn't inspired by any long story or anything! I found the top on sale and loved the lines of it, and the yoke seemed perfect for a little detail work. Coupled with that the fact that I needed to do a demo at the CHA (Craft and Hobby Association) trade show, and here you have it. The stenciled dragonflies with their crystal-accented wings go all the way around the yoke. I added a crystal dragonfly at the bottom of the breezy top. Here's how to make one yourself. In addition to the instructions and step-by-step on the Make It Mine blog, we also have a video showing the stenciling and crystal setting steps."

Happy Bug Days from The OT Team!
