Poppy's New Range

Hello

Some of you may remember a while ago I did a post about a little commission I did for a customer which involved changing a beautiful dress the customers daughter had grown out of into a cushion & framed picture (If not you can see it here)

 The gorgeous dress was a Poppy dress. I have followed the small but busy family business for a while now through Twitter, Facebook & their Blog. I love there designs & was so excited to hear about there new Poppy goes to the Circus collection I just had to show you all a sneak peek!

The dresses are all available to buy online here. I love how each dress has a storybook that accompanies it. Hope you all like the new designs as much as I do. They have also started selling fabric, mugs & Adult size dresses - Very exciting!

little project

Recently I have been working on a couple of commission projects for a customer

I have done a few similar things before for her, she likes to bring in her children's favourite clothes they have grown out of and have them made into something else like cushions for there rooms, framed pictures etc. I love this idea as it obviously holds a lot of memories for her and her children and to be able to use the new item again instead of just keeping them tucked away in a special box.

Here are a couple of the things I have made for her previously.

The other week Heather brought in one of her daughters favourite dresses she had grown out of. It was a Poppy dress which are adorable, I love the prints around the bottom of the dresses they kind of tell a story. I have always like poppy's designs you can see them on here website here.

So as you can imagine I was happy to try and create something else from the special dress, Heather had asked for a cushion and a framed piece of the fabric. Once I started to unpick the dress it was amazing to see how much fabric was used to make such a small beautiful dress. I made two small rectangle cushions and framed up a section of the printed design i think these will look fab together in Maddie's room.
