Sewn flowers Design: Merav Veber Haddad

Merav Veber Haddad studied Textile Design at Shenkar College and spent years conducting creative design workshops for children, centered around a variety of materials in her hometown of Petah Tikva. Forced to close her studio three years ago after the pandemic hit, she decided to create her own brand of sewn objects made only with black and white thread. In her south Tel Aviv studio, she creates beautiful and delicate objects, plants, and figures with her sewing machine. Her delightful bouquets of sewn flowers need not a drop of water to enliven any room or table. Price: bouquet of 5 flowers: NIS 195, bouquet of 10 flowers: NIS 320 @thinksew_todo_merav
