Flowery commission

I had a commission to make a sign for a floral business. The client in question is a lovely lady and wanted the sign to look a lot like her business card:
Sorry about the bad photo!
Her colours are charcoal, green and white so I decided to go for a charcoal grey background. I used wool mix felt and cut the letters, then appliqued them on with gorgeous shiny embroidery thread. The flower is an exact copy of the one on her card - scanned then 'blown up' and the centre is free machine sewing. I am really pleased with how it turned out. The actual sign measures about 32" across so it's quite big.
Here's wishing Joanne all the best with her business, hope it brings her lots of luck! x
