Pumpkin patch, nine patch, why not?
Today I plucked these flowers from a box on the verandah and they embraced the silk handily.
Elm leaves turned out to be great for leaving their pattern and colour, too. The fabric they are on is a previously onion dyed silk, and I love the purples, pinks, blacks and greens this yielded. I also did one on plain white silk and the leaves left their colour pretty much as a straight transfer.
I put these salmon coloured maple leaves on pale green rayon and the result is less interesting then I had hoped, but I can improve it with more dyeing.
