Emphatic: a botanical textile artwork
The most beautiful eucalyptus blossoms spill out from swathes of striking silvery grey leaves. A continuing celebration of the abundant, joyful blooming of our local eucalyptus trees. Captured in thread and stitch, textured scraps of hand-dyed fabric have been stitched together by hand to capture the beauty of this local plant.
