AAARG! There be Dragons!

Three Dragons


Here is a new pattern I saw while I was at the Sowbug Roundup last weekend. It is a really fun and simple dragon fly which uses foam for the body and recycled computer packing for the wings.

I would like to say thanks to Kevin Smith for this pattern. Kevin's was originally blue, but I didn't have any blue foam so I improvised. Turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. You can check out Kevin's blog at flywatersedge.blogspot.com

    Dustin...I was trying to figure out how to segment the body. If you don't mind send a photo when you do.
