LEAVES

If you have been following this blog since the beginning you will remember this picture

By William Morris & the story of the flower / leaf.  This month is all about leaves so I thought I would start with a re-visit to this fabulous textile

The famous Acanthus leaf, that is actually around 25 inches, huge.  Unfortunately I dont have a real one of these leaves.  But I do have large dandelion leaves which actually look a bit like these

Please return tomorrow to see what I have done with this leaf, I shall pretend its an acanthus!
