Cherokee Leaf Printing

I learned a new craft at my OASIS classes called Cherokee leaf printing.  Obviously a skill taken from the Cherokee Indians.  It is a process of leaf printing on fabric. The way you do this is tape fresh leaves to fabric and begin pounding with a hammer to release the chlorophyll.  Even if a bit LOUD, it is amazing to watch the transfer of the chlorophyll from the leaves onto the fabric.  The only leaves that do not work well are thick leaves.  Even weed leaves present well.  It is amazing how you can arrange leaves and make a bouquet of "flowers" on your fabric.  I plan to make mine into a pillow.  Now I just need the time to complete this project.
