Craft Edge

I put this on the "wishlist" heading but I think this is where it should be. I need a whimsical firefly, lightning bug. I made one in Inkscape but it's not really whimsical and all the files I find online are too complicated for my limited Inkscape skills. I really need this ASAP as I work at Joann and need these for our "Firefly Frenzy" sale this week. I think it would be great if the employees could wear a firefly.
Thanks.

Hows this?

I've been working on this one - but it would involve a lot of piecing.

Lora,
Very cool!

Thanks Todd and Lora. Todd, yours is a bit detailed, perhaps if I put it over a solid backing? I'll see what I can do. Lora, yours is more like I had in mind but one that I know I could not do in a short time. I thought perhaps I might leave off the legs and replace the red part with just a "bright yellow or green" circle. Wiggle eyes maybe.

I appreciate anything you can come up with. These guys are cute. The guys at work would like Todd's and the girls would probably prefer Lora's.

Here is a simplified version of the dragonfly - the legs are cut out of the top pieces so that you don't have to glue. I have included eyes - but I think some of the wiggly eyes would be really cute! (the second picture shows you what the cut pieces look like - there are two white pieces for the eyes as well but they are not showing up - I had them colored a pale gray so that could be the problem.)

Thank you Lora, this is great. Kinda reminds me of the Cootie bugs on the Cootie game.

Oh my gosh Lora?? absolutely adorable.. as is yours Todd..LOL

I've created the more detailed version and added a couple of title options - it's available for free on my blog!

Thanks for looking!

Very Clever!
