    It is too early in the morning-I should have called the block snail's trail rather than monkey wrench.

    Option one is my favorite. It showcases the dragonflies, which is what you want. The snail trails add motion, which be the flight paths of the dragon flies. The fabric would be beautiful as a border, depending on the fabric used for piecing. If the quilt is to be used as the top bed cover, the center motif of dragon flies will be very striking!

    Choices two and three are pretty too, but choice one is da best!

    All look great. Look at the 2013-2014 Round Robin. Someone had a dragonfly quilt.

    I love the movement of the first one, it echos the dragonfly shape/flight.

    I think I like the first one.....but would fussy cut the dragon flies from original to put in the center and would also fussy cut one for each corner of border

    I like 1 but would like to see more white in it to make the dragonflies pop
