Bewitched Bird of Paradise

Using my photo of a bird of paradise plant, I manipulated the image using the Photoshop 'twirl' function to make the plant look like it is taking off and the leaves and brush around it look like it is twirling into the vortex.  I used hand-dyed cotton, 30 weight and 12 weight thread.
