    Can you do free hand curly loops inbetween them? To simulate them flying?

    I don't have a stencil--I just did some freehand--I just practiced on a piece of paper with a magic marker==could use a dry erase board too. I started from the tail up. They turned out great!

    Do you have a photo that you could share with me?

    I was thinking of doing that. I will have to practice a bit and see what I can come up with.

    Could you over lap the stencil to get them closer ? Do one , leave a space, do another one then when they dry come back in fill in the space ? Does that make sense

    Go to Fatcatpatterns.com
    You'll find a dragonfly in there.
    Can't tell you exactly what "title" it's under, but you can print it out and resize it to what you need.
