P.S. When it finally warms up (here in Indiana it is -5 this a.m.) please don't kill the dragonflies. It might look like they are following you and going to sting you, but they are actually using you as bait. They only eat mosquitoes and they are waiting until a skeeter tries to land on you and then they grab the skeeter.

It is -27 with the windchill (in Ontario, Canada) ... so no dragonflies here for a while!!!
The "backdrop" behind the dragonflies in a piece of fabric that comes with the kit. It's not painted or anything .... just made like that.
You don't have to buy the kit, you could buy pattern, and you would need as many colours as you want to do the dragonflies. I had 14 FQ and I have fabric left over on all of them.
Yes, it's from Keepsake Quilting. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be!
I will definitely be looking into the hummingbird kit tho! That sounds fun
Thank you all for you comments!
