an embroidered photo! i love doing this!!!
(ps the photo was taken when i was flying from florida to nyc a few months ago!)
Father Herman was very gracious host, showing us around the Noul Neamt Monastery in Transnistria, and when he found out Niqui was a keen embroiderer he wanted to know if she could repair this 500 year old work. She did consider it, but felt it was beyond her excellent capabilities this time.
The Dnister River marks the border between Moldova and the breakaway state of Transnistria. However, Transnistria means "other side of the Dnister [river]", but since to the residents they're on 'this' side they call the region Pridnistrovie, meaning "Before the Dnister [river]". This part of Moldova want independence and separation from Moldova, to keep their Russian identity, but they don't want to part of Russia or have any links to The Kremlin. There has border control to enter the region but everything is so friendly, despite us being so close to the Ukrainian border.

So, so, so, so pretty.
The pictures really speak for themselves here. Beautifully sewn embroidery arranged in a gorgeous pattern, lovely colors of every hue, graceful bat wing sleeves, and two adorable loop buttons at the neck.
There is a small, teeny tiny stain on the front of the blouse near the sleeve opening. Also some stitching running up the side is starting to come loose.
No label

This elaborate garment displaying beautiful dival embroidery, was a popular Turkish export from 1850-1920. This one was worn by Lillian Gambrell McCall (1880-1959) of Bennettsville, South Carolina. She married Charles Sinclair McCall in 1911 and lived on Appin Plantation.
Dival embroidery is typical of Turkish work – the wrapped thread is stitched to the fabric, not embroidered through it. The circular shape, upstanding collar and rolled thread buttons reflect an Albanian style cape or mantle.
Gift of Catherine Rogers (Lillian’s granddaughter) in 2009
This will be the flap on a spring time version of the Keyka Lou Messenger Bag. The embroidery pattern is a William Morris design from the book Crewel Embroidery in England published in 1975. I modified it a bit and jazzed up the colors.
Here is my previous version of the messenger bag

I love hankies especially vintage ones, I couldn't resist doing a little stitching on this one I picked up from Elsie Betty.
I have three more of these and, if finished in time, they will be making their debut at Finders Keepers and BiECO.

Vancouver’s Chinese Garden was built in 1985-1986 using the time honored principles and techniques of the original Ming dynasty garden. Fifty-two master craftsmen from Suzhou China, working with Canadian counterparts, completed this landscape masterpiece within a year. The intricate halls and walkways are constructed with precise joinery and without the use of nails, screws or glue. The Garden opened on April 24, 1986.
Based on the principle of collaborative design, the Garden compliments the adjacent public park; enhancing the view in both places.
For the architect, the botanist, the student of history, the lover of beauty, the Garden provides insights into the subtle wonders to be found within the walls of this living treasure.
This Embroidered Box or Casket as it was called was the result of a workshop I did through EG Fife Branch with Janet Edmonds

This embroidered comic is going to be part of a blackwork sampler for my mom. This isn't the final version but you can still get an idea for what it will look like.
