Where Summer Hangs – Original Artwork

£325.00

An original hand-stitched embroidery featuring rich pink and purple fuchsias, hanging among softly shaded green leaves. Inspired by the hanging baskets my mum always had, this large botanical piece holds a little of the colour and familiarity of growing up with flowers all around.

Fuchsias always make me think of my mum. She loves them, and we always had tonnes growing in hanging baskets when I was growing up. Their bright colours and little dangling flowers feel very familiar to me, so there’s something quite lovely about spending time with them again in thread.

This original embroidery features pink and purple blooms, unopened buds, and a tangle of green leaves and slender stems. The flowers and foliage are stitched by hand using thread painting, blending shades gradually to give the folded petals depth and the leaves their soft shifts between light and shadow. Fine pink stamens hang below the flowers, finishing those familiar little shapes.

At 8.5 inches across, it’s a larger piece, with plenty of room to enjoy the colour and small details. The warm wood-effect hoop frames the flowers simply, letting their rich shades stand out against the pale fabric.

A piece for anyone who loves botanical embroidery, a garden full of colour, or flowers that bring a few memories of their own.
