Description

A sure sign of warmer weather is the appearance of poppies, their fragile, blowsy petals opening out to greet the sun and add vibrant splashes of colour everywhere they bloom.

Popular as a garden flower, their tenacious habit sees them appearing in the smallest paving cracks or across whole fields in astonishing displays.

Stitched onto a painted background, this spectacular study has them worked in surface embroidery and stumpwork to perfectly capture their fleeting beauty.
