| | Plus, tons of other inspiring posts are waiting for you... Don't forget to invite your friends and family to join our free group! | | Clever Poppy Maker Spotlight | | This week, Maker's Academy Member Xiomari created a Moonlit Blooms embroidered top for her daughter. She shared: "I love seeing my little girl wear things I embroidered on for her. She's wearing a 12m shirt and I think the design size is perfect for this size!" | | | | |
I'm SUPER excited about an upcoming pattern I've been working on, and I just had to share a sneak peek with you! For months (make that over a year!), we had the idea of adding a mandala design to our collection, but I was waiting for the perfect moment since it took some time to figure out how to blend a mandala with the style we love at Clever Poppy.
The moment I started designing and incorporating florals, everything just clicked - it all flowed together so naturally. I even began stitching it up that very evening! The result is something we absolutely adore, and I can't wait to share the complete design with you when it's released.
