Design Concept

In our garden we grow many kinds of herbs. My husband noticed tiny blossoms on our rosemary bush and decided to experiment with macro photography. He used a photo stacking technique that allows every part of the blossom to be in focus at the same time. I asked him to try the same thing on several other herbs as they came into bloom. Finally, we had all four herbs mentioned in Scarborough Fair, one of my favorite songs by Simon and Garfunkel. I photographed the foliage of the herbs and created borders for each of the herb blossoms.  The composite image was printed on cotton fabric by Spoonflower.
