Commissioned by Glasgow Museums for the collection of the Gallery of Modern Art. Exhibited and stored at The Burrell Collection, Pollock Country Park, Glasgow G43 1AT (viewing by appointment)

Lynne describes the tapestry:

"a figure in a 'strawberry fool' dress, watering a garden of strange flowers, artichokes, snails, dandelion clocks and strawberry 'nests'. A bonfire sends up its smoke signal and a cat watches a bird which in turn preys on the strawberry harvest."
