More leaves

Experimenting goes on.

I coloured the white thread in the oak leaf

Thank you, Deanna, for encouraging me.

Tulpenbaum - tulip tree leaf - I inserted a tiny needle lace circle:

Finally I think that the leaves are drying not in a nice way. Too uneven.

If I do it next time I will follow Deannas method: Soaking them in glycerine

for severyl days.

I like really this one. A small cherry-tree leaf with embroidery in cotton

a broder.

And finally leaves still on the bush -what a colour!

My herbs and other plants - I love those subdued colours. 

Wishing you a creative week!
