Wednesday’s Spotlight … Dandelyne

Sonia Lyne is the maker and creator behind Dandelyne. The name was came about due to Sonia’s love for dandelions which she then incorporated her surname, and that’s how Dandelyne was born.

Dandelyne blossomed from Sonia’s love for embroidery and all things mini. It seemed only natural that she would combine the two.

The miniature hoops are laser cut in Melbourne, and Sonia and her husband spend many nights drilling and hand finishing each one. It is quite a process but it is obvious to see Sonia’s passion for what she does.

The hoops come in two sizes, the first is teeny tiny and measures 4cm/1.6” in diameter, the second slightly bigger but still tiny measures 5.5cm/2.125”. Another passion on Sonia’s is to sew custom portraits in larger hoops!

Sonia would sew 24/7 if she could and it is clear to see why. Sonia’s love for her work is captured in everything one of her lovely, cute, little hoops. They are a tiny bit of happiest which would bring a smile to anyone’s face.
