"Commission me to machine stitch a portrait of your much loved pet"

A young couple recently contacted me with a very unusual request. They were due to be married but couldn't take their furry family member with them. The bride to be asked me if I would be able to embroider a portrait for the groom to wear inside his jacket so their pet could be with them in spirit. I thought it was a lovely idea and was honoured to be asked to complete this unusual request.

The embroidery was completed as a school badge type patch so it could be stitched inside the jacket. We chose this format so the embroidery could be framed later.

"This commission was particularly meaningful because the couple trusted me to be part of their special day. "
