Cherry Blossom Platter

Here it may be winter, again, but in Japan the cherry blossom is in full bloom.


Cherry Blossom platter
A few years ago I was researching Japanese art and culture which inspired me to make this Cherry Blossom Platter.

It was hand stitched using thick wools in the blossom design and then I blended it altogether using free motion machine embroidery.

When finished it was stiffened and moulded into shape.

Hopefully this will give you a touch of Spring on this cold day.
