French dragon
La Velue was a terrible dragon who dwelled within a cavern by the Huisne. While it was ultimately slain, its various abilities made it quite a fearsome thing.
On spite it lived on beyond the flood, and with spite it acted until the very end.
It has come to my attention that there is criminality little art of the fench Chevaliers.
So have Virgil! The Petit Chevalier!!

I finally took this big needlepoint piece out for a photoshoot! This is from my show Menagerie. The beast in the lower righthand side is a Tarasque, a French dragon-like creature tamed by saint Martha. I worked on this piece every day after work for six weeks. It is the largest needlepoint piece I have created, measuring 20 x 16 unframed.
Tumblr keeps suggesting “french dragons” as a tag.
