Hello All! It’s amazing what you can collect over the years! As we get ready to move yet again, I was sorting thru my embroidery, beading, braiding & lace stuff because I know that I can’t take all of it to a small condo. Mind you, I did this less than two years ago when we downsized & my stash was still overflowing. :-( So I made two piles—“keepers” & “find a good home”. Luckily, friends & friends of friends provided good homes so I can move without sending any treasures to the landfill. That brings me to my PHD—Project Half Done. It’s a lovely Lynn Payette beaded needlelace dragonfly that I started in EGA, 15 maybe 20? years ago. Everything was there in the plastic bag, calling my name. With all my books/supplies packed & lots of last minute moving details, it turned out to be the right project for the right time. When I finished, I took my dragonfly outside to take a picture & a real dragonfly immediately started to buzz me! He had iridescent blue! wings & a copper colored body & he was quite persistent. According to Google, male dragonflies are territorial. I think my lavender/blue version is a lady but apparently he didn’t think so! My laptop is packed & I have not figured out how to post a photo to Arachne Flickr from my iPad photo library so if anyone has a tutorial, please share. Many thanks. Sincerely, Susan
