Just thought i would show what patterns i have been working on with this feather, it does give a nice effect to bumbles and these are what i messed about with using these hackles.

I used white floss and claret floss at thorax..ribbed with gold tinsel pulled the hackles forward and give a coat of varnish for strength.

I just think its to do with church window pictures joni, someone must have thought the patterns looked like them, prob same patterns on the moon and in clouds.

Here is some info on the feathers.
