Memories / Erinnerungen (6)

"Hippocampus"
Curleymonkey




While working on this bracelet many memories from my childhood came back to me. So this is my entry for the theme "Memories".
Beading, peyote stitch, seed beads.

Karin





I started working on this while watching the movie ‘White Christmas’, so I’m sure you can figure out the connection.The postcard is made with 100% cotton sheeting. The background is painted using Pebeo Touch paints, and then I used some stitching and beads to create the feeling of falling snow.

a present for my mothers 70 years-day

For a sorely missed dear old friend who i hope will not only enjoy it, but get in touch again! Sequin scrap, floral wrap and leftover leaf stitched and beaded on handmade paper

This is my favorit quote:
What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now
Beate


I love the idea of the old fashioned charm bracelets. Individual charms collected throughout a life time that trigger memories specific and personal to the particular individual. This crocheted version chronicles a fictitious woman's life from her birth (pink baby shoe) to the well-earned vacations of her retirement. And, of course, there is room left on the bracelet to document the rest of what life brings her.

Tuesday again, so here we go with a theme that might feel right in this time of year:
Memories

Wieder ein Dienstag, dieses Mal mit einem Thema, das vielleicht ganz gut in diese Zeit des Jahres passt:

Claude Monet (8)

Valentine card for my Mother---fabric paper, painted embroidered bird, stitching, beading couched edges
And "stretching" a definition: for Textile Tuesday, this is my "Monet" interpretation/inspiration, because of the colours!

"Waterlilies"

Der Hintergrund ist mit Seidenmalfarbe angemaltes dünnes Vlies, das auf Windelvlies aufgebügelt ist. Das Ganze ließ sich sehr gut bemalen und trocknete unregelmäßig, dadurch entstanden dann feine Risse und Falten, was richtig gut zum Wassereffekt passte.
Die Seerosen sind mit Knopflochstich appliziert, die Wellenbewegung mit Glitzergarn nachempfunden.

Hier wurde Pelmet Vilene bemalt und mit Organza bespannt und nur leicht geschmolzen. Seide aufgeheftet und ebenfalls leicht geschmolzen. Effektgarne und gefärbter Mull wurden verarbeitet und mit Stickereien versehen.

I used 100% cotton sheeting (fairly thick stuff), standard anchor embroidery floss and Pebeo Setacolour Shimmer paints which I diluted so I could use them like watercolours.

November (11)

Gunnel


Detail of tree below eye--this part is actually only 4"x3" (the whole piece is 5"x7")
And since November was so snowy here, this is my Textile Tuesday/November entry :}
Arlee

November is a strange month of celebration and gratitude in my culture. It opens with All Soul's Day (Day of the Dead) where we remember the spirit of those that have moved on past life and rejoice at having known them. The month ends with Thanksgiving - a celebration of the living that acknowledges all that is good in life and offers gratitude. So this piece honors what has been and what is.
Cecilia

Kuninfelt geschmolzen und auf einen Hintergrundstoff gelegt. Darüber wurde Merinowolle in unregelmäßigen Streifen (Nebelschwaden) gelegt und schließlich mit Organza abgedeckt und gequiltet. Der Baum wurde 3D-mäßig aufgestickt.
Organza-Gewebe zwischen den Quiltlinien aufgeschnitten und bemalt.
Ulrike


Lots of circles, and MORE circles!!
I'm always running around in circles in November - just so much to do.

This year november has been unusually warm. Some flowers started to bloom again while the grass around them started to fade and become brown.
Felt, yarn, wool on the embellisher

Love / Liebe (10)

The design was stitched onto layers of organza, then I used a soldering gun to cut the design out - then sewed it onto black velvet. (Not the best photo)
I love the Art Nouveau era - all the swirls and the lovely lines - it was such a fun, lively, extravagant and artistic movement.

OK, looks like Egypt was a bit difficult or not too interesting, but I hope this weeks theme will grab everyones interest.

Tja, sieht so aus als wäre Ägypten ein schwieriges Thema gewesen, aber ich hoffe, das neue Thema bringt wieder viele Fotos.
