I came across Hillary Fayle's work recently, and as an artist that works with embroidery as a medium as well, I just had to contact her.  Hillary's work is so unique - very different from other work I've seen of late - and she has already been featured in embroidery publications.

Hillary began embroidering on leaves in the States after studying embroidery at Manchester Metropolitan University in England.  Her preference is to use environmentally friendly materials in her art, and leaves are a perfect choice for her.  She not only embroiders leaves; she cuts them in intricate forms as well.  Much of Hillary's work is custom, and she can be contacted here for special orders. You are in for a visual treat!
