Tinctorial Plants

The fourth embroidery pattern chart in the Museums and Heritage collection, these tinctorial plants were a great pretext to develop patterns representing a whole collection of flowers to embroider in cross stitch. As with all the subjects in this collection, I do not pretend to have explored all the plants used for dyeing fabric and thread. It is more of a subjective evocation. Even if I put in a lot of research, it was also important to find an aesthetic aspect, so that the finished result was a harmonious blend of sizes and colours.
