And where did you find that beautiful dragonfly? Or did you make it?
I bought some fabric that had some really pretty (color wise) bugs on it. There were several pretty dragon flies printed on the fabric. I picked one, cut the dragon fly out of the fabric, added the wire and then ironed fabric to the back and cut it out again. I didn't have any wire in the house thin enough but thought that the wire that is sometimes found in ribbon would work. I had some of that left over from Christmas. Sure enough, worked like a charm!
