Hi Gail…they are supposed to be overlapped. The ones I made are as well. I did add a top and bottom support wire to them because they are so big. You can add them the same way I did in the video with the cicada wings. I ran the bottom support wire along the thicker black line on the bottom portion of each side. I still made the U shape at the bottom of the wire and then attached the two wires together with floral tape the same way I did with the cicada wings.
Thanks Tracy, this is a great tutorial and the wings turn out very realistically.
The downloaded picture has the wings overlapped so that one can’t see the whole individual wing. Could you fix this by separating the wings?
