I Am just starting this thing. I have been scrolling for a while about 1 and 1/2 years. This looks like a fun place to exchange info.
I will be doing a Dragon fly project soon any suggestions?

I've looked at some images on the PD websites Kevin (jediscroller) posted for us to use. There isn't much to choose from but I am considering giving it a shot. If I do the pattern will be in the form of fretwork. I know nothing about producing patterns for intarsia. There are others here that do, though. Maybe they will give it a shot for you.
I'll post in the new pattern section if I can come up with something reasonable.

This site here has a pattern for a fretwork dragonfly,
Maybe it is of some use to you.

Wow, I checked this out and it is very similar to what I had in mind to do. The pattern looks very easy to cut, too.
Thanks, Marsha! I may even try this one. My wife loves magnets. I may have to purchase a sander, though, but I've been needing one anyway. I've been getting a hankerin' to try intarsia and from what I've read a sander is a must.
