Porcelain to napkins: Custom embroidery magic

One of the things I love most about embroidery is how versatile it can be, how a small detail can elevate something ordinary into something unforgettable.

Recently, a very dear client reached out to me with a special request. She had just purchased a stunning porcelain dinner set, beautifully decorated with bold and colorful equestrian designs. But there was a problem: she couldn’t find any napkins that matched or complemented the unique style of her new dishes.

That’s when she thought of me.

She sent me photos of her plates, and immediately I saw an opportunity. I proposed taking one small element from the plate’s design, one of the stylized horse illustrations, and turning it into a custom embroidery. She loved the idea!

I created embroidered napkins inspired by the exact design of her dinnerware. The result was stunning: the napkins added the perfect touch to her table, harmonizing with the elegance of the porcelain while adding something uniquely hers.

She was thrilled. And honestly, so was I.

This project is a perfect example of how embroidery can adapt, personalize, and transform. With just one design element, we turned a set of plates into a full table styling moment. It’s not just about matching, it’s about creating a story, a feeling, a wow factor.

If you have something special you’d like to match: a pattern, a plate, a piece of fabric, let’s make it happen together.

Get in touch and let’s bring your ideas to the table.
