Default your lilly leaves are just fine!

During the class I was able to make a couple of neat marbles (minus the kiln rash from dropping them in too hot). Since then, the quality of what I've made has been much nicer. Thanks Dan!

Here is a lilly from that class. I didn't make the best stringer color combo for the leaf but you get the idea.
I have many kinds of bromiliads in my garden and (depending on the time of year) several have leaves identical to those on your lilly. Yours look just fine and totally natural to me.
