    I did this twister with the intention to have a larger pinwheel in the middle with pinwheels spiraling off of it...like it spinning.
    I'd seen it done with the small twister, so I tried it with the large one.
    One part of me says that it looks good, but the other part says, "Man, that's a lot of dragonflies in the middle." Is it too overpowering?

    I like it how it is! It makes a cute swirl in it. Catches the eye!!!

    No such thing as too many dragonflies. Seriously, I like it.

    dragonflies eat mosquitoes - how can you ever have too many???

    Haven't tried the bigger twister but like the look you created

    So the answer is - No, it's not too many dragonflys, it's just right. :)
