My daughter and I purchased a very low cost marking fabric at the local market (Rs 28 per meter) and bought some green fabric paints. We made our prints by painting the back side of each leaf where the veins are and pressing it firmly down on the cloth. Much to our surprise, almost every print was successful because the leaves we collected were just so beautiful. Each one, so different.
We cut the fabric into patches and added some other stamping designs to add color.
Then we realized they were perfect for the tote bags we had made from all the scrap fabrics i had sitting around the house so we are now stitching them onto these...leaving the edges to fray in a natural sort of way :-)
