This collection of fabric leaves was part of an old textile piece that didn't really work. I removed an image of a Mayan statue which left an open space that just cried out for some tropical butterflies. The leaves were all digitized and then stitched out onto various types of fabric, cut out individually and sewn to a felted backgound..
I digitized these Rajah Brookes Birdwing butterflies on a double layer of black Lutradur, then 'cut' them out with a wood burning tool. Now to add antennae and add them to the leaf background.
