I acquired 11 traditional Catskill dry flies tied by the Dettes a few years ago. Getting them framed by the right craftsman was a no brainer. It took a while but we're almost getting there.
We chose the type and color of the frame, the picture to go with it and the positioning of the flies. I looked for a picture of the Dette's that wasn't used in so many articles, books and other frames but didn't succeed. Having an uneven number of flies meant some (symmetrical) lay out was not going to give a nice result.
At second glance there are a few irregular spacing, so more fine-tuning is needed. These wonderful flies deserve the best we can do. Hopefully we can hang it up before this (another) crazy year ends!
Update May 23, 2022:
See the final result!
