Jacobean is one of my all time favorite designs for embroidery. I love the different textures and the colorful motifs. This leaf is my first attempt at Jacobean design - and it was easier than I thought it would be! There are three color changes in this leaf for extra depth.

This evening I picked up several books about the Elizabethan era that had a few ideas for pattern decoration. This is just the beginning... ;-D
