lovely dragonfly pillow. i love the translucence of their wings and how they always show up when rain is about. needless to say, haven't seen any dragonflies in awhile. great pics in that pdf on beadwork and loved the poem. i have a huge bead collection and love to use them in my stitching. i think i even have some dragonfly beads. thanks for all that great information.
