Experimentation with Leaf Design

After some experimentation with leaf designs, I decided the best way to show a progression while maintaining the appearance of a leaf was to take out a triangle of the side at each point of progression. This picture was to work out how many triangles I would need to take out of each leaf and therefore how many progressions my project would require. I settled on 22 (11 on each side, as shown above). Each set of three leaves will project from the central wire at a rotation of 90ยบ from the one below it and will be 1.2 cm further up the wire. They will also have some kind of colour progression as well.

Now I need to create a template for the leaves.
