'Many ways to garden by Su_G': tablewear mockup
'Many ways to garden by Su_G' in a tablewear setting (placemats & dinner napkins) mockup (c/o Roostery)
TECHNICAL NOTE: the mockup also shows the expected difference in color between the same design printed on Eco Canvas (polyester, used for the placemats) and Cotton Sateen (used for the napkins). I was a bit surprised to see so much difference even in the neutral background.
Found grass seedheads [Common name 'Kangaroo Grass'; scientific names: Themeda triandra, Themeda australis], scanned & colored. My entry in Spoonflower's Gardening Design Challenge.

'Kangaroo Grass': representing Australian Indigenous gardening - for long unrecognised. As people moved around country they scattered or drilled-in seeds harvested from other places. European settlers came and saw the results - but did not recognise them as a product of 'gardening' as there were no obvious fences, rows of plants, or irrigation structures... and the first peoples were denigrated as being 'without agriculture'. See Rethinking Indigenous Australia's agricultural past - from the ABC, Australia's national broadcaster, for more information.
