Meet Clive Rickard
A creative designer with 30 years' experience, Clive began experimenting with appliqué during lockdown as a personal project so he 'wouldn't go mad'. His designs proved so popular that he launched A Pop of Appliqué, a range of colourful, quirky and luxe home furnishings.
A Pop of Appliqué products range from plush Flora and Fauna-inspired cushions, luxury dog blankets and statement Roman Blinds and Wall Hangings. Playful designs, enchanting compositions and vibrant colour palettes combine to create a brand which is bold, luxurious - and fun!
What is appliqué?
Appliqué is an ornamental needlework technique. Appliquer in French means to attach or join, and this decorative technique involves sewing material onto textiles to create designs, patterns and scenes.
Appliqué has been used around the world for hundreds of years to produce delightfully tactile and surprisingly resilient creations, from clothing to art and of course, soft furnishings.
