Hanks Nancy. I did make these for practice and may use them for my dragonfly blocks. Would ask texture and dimension but am a little worried about bulk. Thanks for your suggestion.

But between the 3 to me the second one would showcase it best.

I heartily agree with this suggestion, for the same reasons.

I really like #1 as it reminds me of how a dragon fly flies- I think I would fussy cut the fabric for the on point squares as a whole square instead of piecing them. Beautiful fabric!

I like #2 the best. I would use the dragonfy fabric for the back. I think cutting it up would detract from the effect and other dragonflies would possibly clash with the ones you make.

I like the 3rd one so you can show of your lovely fabric. But would not use any myself as I would find another pattern to show of the fabric you have is gorgeous.
