Blossom Baby - Photo Prop Blanket - Custom Order - Mood Board

Mood board for my Custom Order  Baby Photo Prop Blanket.

My customer wants a piece  like 'Prince Charming' but for very little baby girls in pale pink, white and beige so this is the mood board to go with the design.

 I have some wonderful white and beige linen and flax yarns as well as some white Rags to Riches, white and beige flag yarns and pale pink bamboo tape yarn

Crochet Summer Art Hat in White Cotton with Green Velvet Ribbon and Recycled Fabric Rose

The Girl with the Pistachio Eyes

Mood Board for my latest Hat. I wish I could say that I had made the board and then the hat but I'm afraid I don't work that way. The hat was finished on Friday but I have only just got around to making the moodboard for it. I know you aren't supposed to work that way but when I design I have an idea in my head as to how I want the finished piece to look and I don't want distractions although thechance of it coming out as I had envisaged is a very rare accurence
