Good morning Folks ~ I feel much better this morning. Had a good night’s sleep and today is a new day.
Since I started ribbon embroidery and seeing the tutorials on Crafty Attic, I have wanted to make a dragonfly, and here is my first attempt. It could be better as this guy has a vertebrae out of whack and his antennae could be longer as could the little pointy things at the end of his tail. It was fun to do and I am looking forward to doing these guys in different colors.
The symbolic meanings of dragonflies are the following:
adaptability and transformation,
joy and lightness of being.
Have a great day or evening wherever you are. I’m planning to do some straightening up here in my little cottage, make a loaf of banana bread, and just enjoy the day.

I love his wings.
You are so very creative. I love the colour of this dragonfly.
He's wonderful! So much talent!
Good morning Lorraine,
I'm afraid that I would be quite useless when it comes to skilled stitching of any kind. Glad that you are feeling a little more upbeat today. Enjoy that homemade banana bread, it sounds delicious. I think I would have mine with lots of hot custard, but then I'm just a pig! Have a good and peaceful weekend.
Very pretty. It's nice that you have such a wonderful hobby to keep you occupied.

Dragonflies are so awesome. Very beautiful!
Hi dear heart. Love the dragonfly. It's been too long...since I've written I mean. So sorry. Had a lot on my plate for awhile, then got quite sick. But God is good. I am back on track, grateful as always, for the Lord's mercy, kindness, patience, and love.
Take care.
Love you much.
Love your dragon fly

not out of whack, he's just lived a lot!
A delightful creature Lorraine...
