A Botanical Wonder: Garden Dreamer by Maureen Cracknell
December 22, 2016
Hey makers!
How is the winter weather treating you so far? We hope all of you are staying warm in your cozy homes and that in the evenings you find time to sew. For me, days that I can stay home and be creative are great to reminisce about beautiful memories. When I’m having these moments of solitude, one memory that always comes to mind is when I would help my mom plant flowers in our garden. We would go to the local nursery and choose the brightest blooms to decorate the front of our house. As I grew up, this seasonal tradition made me enjoy gardening and feel connected to nature.
When I first laid eyes on Maureen Cracknell’s new collection Garden Dreamer, the beautiful florals reminded me of those moments I spent gardening with my mom. From dainty blooms, to voluptuous peonies and buzzing bees, this collection is filled with natural elements contrasted by geometric touches. Once you see this collection in person, it will have you dreaming of a walk through flower fields on a cool spring day.
One of my favorite prints in this collection is the “Moment in Time Dim” print. I absolutely love how all the flowers are perfectly arranged to look like pressed flowers. Not to mention, that this print would look lovely used for garments.
If you’re ready to dream about botanical wonders and all the inspiration florals can bring, check out the marvelous look book we’ve prepared. Indulge in feminine garments, crafty home décor, and much more!
