This is beautiful! I wouldn't have thought it's your first time doing a Chatelaine. It's helping me work up the nerve to try a Chatelaine myself :)

I just want to reach out and brush one, see if it does flutter away ... so vivid ... I found the Dragonfly one via google, but the site doesn't include the chart ...
So many HAEDs I couldn't possibly list them all. Current favorites are Dragon Kin, Sea Unicorns (QS), April Fairy, What's This, Dahlia, and so many starts going on. Love to cross stitch! Find me on Facebook, https://www.facebook.com/brekkana.kultiras

Europeanxs.com is the only place currently to purchase Chatelaine charts, however not all charts have been put on "general release" since the online classes closed - Dragonfly Lace is one of those charts, so you can't purchase it yet. How long until a chart is released is entirely in Martina's hands, but hopefully when she opens up her new website more will be made available :D .
