Vintage Laura Ashley strawberry scrap

Vintage Laura Ashley strawberry scrap

I know, strawberries are not the only fruit, but a theme’s a theme.  This is one of my favourite strawberry prints. It’s a small scrap of brushed dress cotton by Laura Ashley, circa 1980, with an impossibly small strawberry motif: so small I only spotted it while wearing my currently strawberry-tinted spectacles.

I only have a few small scraps of this, sans selvedge, so I don’t know the name of it. Can anyone help me? I think I have just enough to make one or two limited edition very small strawberry emeries, which is just what I’ll do. The rich ruby colour is represented best by the picture below.
