A commission piece 7"x7" floss, metallics, wire & vintage fabrics on denim (& stitching on stretchy denim is dreadful, by the way!!)

This round vintage pincushion is constructed of linen and features a lovely embroidered apple or cherry tree. An embroidery floss covered ring is sewn onto the back so it can be hung on the wall. It looks unused. IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME LEARN MORE ABOUT THIS PIECE, I'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU. How old is it? Was it made from a kit? What is the value? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Button stitched with wool, Perle 8 and metallic thread.

Perle Cotton #8 on hand dyed silk. It's difficult to prevent a row around the edge from getting distorted while attaching it to the button blank. Any hints? Maybe I should add those after the button is finished?

A custom commission for a Hall & Oates fan. Full story of this piece blogged:

miniaturerhino.blogspot.com/2014/02/hall-oates-embroidere...

Various fabrics were attached with Bondaweb then a small amount of machine embroidery was used to blend fabrics together. Then the lace piece was attached and hand embroidery was used to finish.

This notebook is made from felt and was hand embroidered from a pattern drawn by myself.

Women continue to reclaim their honor, despite, discrimination, poverty and the systemic barriers set against them. In this composition I have tried to show their collective and individual echo valuing their importance.

Traveling from Leli to Kaili.

 

My personal comment: over commercialized, to be avoided if you don't want to be trapped amid busloads of very loud mostly Chinese tourists with big zoom lenses, smartphones and tablets. If you like fake and dress up parties, this is the place to be.

 

Surrounded by green mountains, Langde Shang Village is situated beside a crystal stream. Several roofed wooden bridges, called "Wind and rain" bridges by the locals, stretches over the stream. Several stone grain mills and mill wheels have been built on both sides of the stream. Ducks can be seen here and there, flapping the wings happily in the water. On the waist of the slope facing the village is a 150-meter-long racecourse and a flat ground, whose area is about 8 mu (mu is a traditional unit of area, equaling to 0.0667 hectare or 1/6 acre). On March 5th of the lunar calendar every year, thousands of young Miao people from the region where the four counties, Leishan, Kaili, Majiang, and Danzhai, have a common boundary, come to the place. They climb the mountains, sing musical dialogues in antiphonal styles, and race horses.

 

The Langde Shang Village is located at the foot of a mountain. There are five “flower roads” leading to the village. A wood gatehouse, called the "village gate", is built at the eastern, western and northern entrances of the village. Row upon row of wood houses (those propped up by wooden supports with ladders leading up) makes a picturesque scene. The roads and courtyards in the village are paved with cobbles or bluestones. There are a drum ground and a Lusheng (the reed-pipe wind instrument used by Miao, Yao and Dong nationalities in southwestern China) ground, built in the pattern of ancient bronze drum surface. Twelve short tracks, paved with blue-brown cobbles, stretch to twelve directions, symbolizing the twelve rays of lights. A cobble pattern of galloping horse is inlayed at the end of the drum ground and the Lusheng ground.

 

Visitors to Langde Shang Village have to drink the "block-the-way" wine (a local custom of welcoming the guests) when they arrive. Twelve tables are placed in the middle of the path from the roadside of the highroad to the gate of the villages. Several full-dressed young people will propose a toast to the guests with two bowls of wine, wishing them happy and healthy. At the last table to the village, people will use a big cow horn to hold the wine and propose toast to the guests. So the guests should drink a lot before they enter the village. However, those who are not good at drinking don't have to worry. If they don't want to drink, they can put their hands at the back, bend forward a little and touch the cup with their lip, and say " dousemo" (Miao language, meaning "thank you"). Then they can pass the table. The villagers are very hospitable, but they will never make the guests drink if they can't.

 

The welcoming ceremony continues when the villagers set off firecrackers, play Mangtong (a kind of local musical instrument), and sing song of toasting the guests. Then the villagers will dress up and lead the guests to the Lusheng ground. The young villagers will have the traditional dances, Lusheng dance, wooden stool dance, wood drum dance, bronze drum dance, and so on. Finally, all the villagers will go the ground and form several circles and dance. They will also invite the guests to join them. After the dancing ceremony, guests can go to the villagers' home to observe the creaking spinning wheels and the weaving machine and enjoy the quiet village life.

That's the first adult-size dress I made from a vintage cross-stitched tablecloth. I am very happy with the way it came out and will be making more of these in future.
