Can anyone suggest any patterns using Magpie and which feathers are best.

I'm expecting to have some available soon (http://www.gifmania.sg/sports/hunting/caza.gif) :roll:

Tasty.

Didn't think to do a search. :oops:

I also found a Davie MacPhail video for a Magpie and silver which looks a nice too.

Anyone any idea where to get traditional tinsel in gold and silver ?
