A lightly felted Purple Poppy brooch, with leaf positioned at 11 o'clock and
stem. Handmade by me, Elaine at Edge Fold, to my own design. The Purple
Poppy is worn to remember the animal victims of war. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the brooch will go directly to Murphy's Army Charity. (I do not profit from the sale of poppies. My time and materials are given for free).
Please note: Because this is a handmade item, it may vary
slightly from the photos.
The Poppy is hand knit from 100% British Lambs Wool, to my own
pattern. Lightly felted (shrunk and thickened) then sewn together. Knit, felted, sewn
and completed by hand.
Perfect for pinning onto a dress, coat, top, bag, hat,
sweater, jacket, scarf, etc.
The purple flower (not including the leaf or
stem) measures approximately 5.5cm-6cm across. Including the stem, it is
approximately 12cm tall and the part of the leaf visible from the front is around 2.5cm. If the stem is too long it can be carefully cut to length using
sharp scissors. Measurements vary from poppy to poppy. A brooch back, with
safety catch, is carefully stitched onto the reverse. Pictured on a plain
white background.
I have LOTS MORE handmade Poppies listed at the moment, some without
leaves and a stem, some with. Please have a look in the 'Handmade
Corsages/Brooches' section of the shop. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of each
poppy goes to charity.
I have tried to show the colours as accurately as possible in the photos. They look accurate on my screen but all screens vary. I am happy to send you a short length of the wool the poppy is made from in case you need to see the colour before deciding. Just send me a SAE.
I have more handmade flower corsages listed at the moment in a wide
range of colours and sizes. Please have a look at my other items. If you
are looking for a corsage in a colour you don't see in my shop, please ask. I
make corsages to order and will list one for you.
If you have any questions please contact me.
