Spring & Summer Flowers Collage Sheets

 
 
Tulip Slides & ATCs

Tulips (and a few other bulbs) sized for slides, ATCs, inchies (1x1s) and 2x2s. A couple images include faint text in the background: "While Tulips lift the banner red, or fill the cups with fire instead. Sweet Hyacinths their bells did ring, to swell the music of the Spring."

The sample art, below, is by Design Team Member Sarah Whitmire, also using mulberry paper flowers from the Mini Essentials Strawberry, Mini Essentials Pastiche and Essentials Strawberry sets; Stitched Leaf Ribbon; and Leaf Green Seam Binding.

Sunflowers

There was once a beautiful water-nymph called Clytie who fell in love with Helios, the God of the Sun. She was so much in love that she would sit on the grass and gaze up at the sun all day long but Helios, in his travels, looked over the world and never once did he see Clytie.

The other Gods took pity on her and turned her into a flower. Her legs became the sunflower's stem, her face became the flower and her golden hair the petals.

Today, in the form of a sunflower, Clytie still stares up at her love and this is why the sunflower's face always turns to follow the path of the sun.

The sample art, below, is by Guest Designer Lenna Andrews, also using mulberry paper flowers from the Mini Essentials Strawberry and Mini Essentials Pastiche sets, and an Amber Matte Glass Flower Bead Cap.

Seed Catalog ATCs

Ophelia's Flowers

Includes a quote from Ophelia's "mad scene" speech in Hamlet: "There's rosemary, that's for remembrance; pray, love, remember: and there is pansies, that's for thoughts."

The large faded lavender frame on the top of the sheet is sizes to frame either of the Ophelia prints at the bottom (so much the better as a clear sticker).

Many more images of Ophelia are on the Theatre page.

The 4" x 4" sample art, below, is by Guest Designer Wendy Anderson and also uses an image from the Pink Roses collage sheet.

Ophelia #3 (Pansies)

From Ophelia's "mad scene" speech in Hamlet: "There's rosemary, that's for remembrance; pray, love, remember: and there is pansies, that's for thoughts."

"Pansies" were "pensées," or "thoughts," in French, a language much enmeshed with the English language of Elizabethan times.

Many more images of Ophelia are on the Theatre page.

The Court of Flora

My Lady's Garden

This is a half-page sheet (5.5" x 8.5"). It's a good starter/trial size if you haven't used a fabric collage sheet (and the long strips of flower borders are good for binding the edges of a tiny fabric quilt square). If you order 2, you'll get a full-size sheet (with 2 copies of the design)

This is a variation of the "Mary, Mary, quite contrary" rhyme. Here's a close-up.

Quite Contrary #1

Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells
And pretty maids all in a row.

Some other versions have evolved over the centuries.
