Shadow work embroidery with fillet lace --- シャドウ・ワークとフィレ・レースのテーブルセンター

こんばんは♪　本日、再びの投稿ですが、夜中だというのに、32℃というのは・・・ --;

この写真から判断すると、私の作品のようにも見えませんか？　笑
そうです！　そんな筈はありませんねぇ・・。
これは購入品ですが、技術的に素晴らしいので、撮影して載せました。

シャドウ・ワーク刺繍と、フィレ・レースの組合せ。
フィレは試した事がありませんから、これがどれほどの物かは、良く解りませんが、シャドウ・ワークは、本当に素晴らしいです。

そしてこちらが、感動の裏側！

そして最後に、全体像。

30×58cmのテーブルセンターです。
近沢レース。中国製品。

急速な経済発展に伴う人件費の値上がりによる価格高騰の前に購入した物です。
それにしても、中国の方はどうしてこんなに器用なのかしら？
では、おやすみなさい♪　tomo

















Hi, there!,
 One more post today for sharing.
How do you think this table center? Did you think this was made... by me?
Sorry... This embroidery with lace was a wonderful purchase made in China, distributed by Chikazawa Lace in Japan.
 I bought it just before the raise of the labor costs in China by the rapid economic development.
I've been wondering why the Chinese peoples are so clever with their hands.
I took pics and posted to share, because the skills are amazing.

 I forgot to write about the first photo.
To tell you the truth, this table cloth needed to mend a little. I noticed it when I ironed. The photo with my needle work goodies was from the reason. Sorry for the begining of this post to take you in.

UPDATED: Nov. 1st, 2010
The second and third photos were exchanged to small pixel photos.
The direct accesses to the enlarged photos from oversea's IPs have been extreamly increasing since a couple of weeks. So I changed them to think about the industries concerned with the product. - I don't know their real purposes, and I want to think that they are just only looking at those photos. But the frequency of the access is extreamly high. And the size of the previous photos are guessed to be easy to trace the pattern.
* The distributor doesn't open the photo of this product to the public. Thanks for your understandings.


Thank you for visiting!

Tule lace doiry (2) - チュールレース ドイリー

こんばんは♪
このところ、クラフト関係をする事の出来る時間が非常に少なく、時間が取れる日であっても、１日あたり10～15分という悲しい状況なのですが、とりあえず続けているボビンレースの進捗をアップしました。

 んん～？　終わりは近いようで遠い！かな？　昨夜は少し飛ばして、只今第３コーナーの中間といった所です。第３コーナーを全部完了させれば良かったのですが、眠たくって眠たくって・・。「途中で止めたら大変な事になる！」の思いが半分、しかし、睡魔の方が勝ってしまい、ZZZ・・・。　それで、この写真は、第２コーナーを回ったあたりです。　^^;
Kちゃんから頂いたHorseshoe（緑色の馬蹄形のもの）、とても重宝しています♪　Kちゃん、ありがとう!!!

Hi, there!
 I've been spending busy time every day since October began. I can hardly make time for paper crafting. Because I have many biz-trips to move using public transportation - mainly airplanes and trains. Escaping the messy inks etc. is necessary.  So I enjoy needleworks or knitting while moving. And after coming home, I continue to knit the bobbin lace doiry. But even if I make time for it, it's only about 10 - 15 minutes per day. *sigh* :(
In these days, I long for the days I can do paper crafting...

Thanks for stopping by!

Tule lace doily (1) - チュールレース ドイリー

こんばんは♪
日本の皆さんは、生地・糸物がようやく出て来たか・・・なんて思われているかと。（笑）

久しぶりに、レースを再開しました。と言っても、まだまだ練習中なのですが。
８月中頃にチュールの基本ステッチを作ってみましたので、それに続き、小さなドイリーを開始したところ、気管支喘息で中断してこの状態です。

チュールレース。昨年、初心者にも関わらず、結構複雑な物に挑戦して、「やはり基礎から」と再開したのが正解だったのでしょうか？　まあ、まずますの進捗具合のようです。
（お教室にも行っていないし、客観的に評価してくださる方がいらっしゃいませんので、自己評価ですけれどもネ。^^;）
とりあえず、コーナーは何とかクリアしたので（結構大変でした！）、あと３コーナーとドッキングですねぇ。　この写真を、今、よく見ていたところ、「コーナーでドッキングになるのだわ！どうしよう！？（冷や汗）」と気づきました！　><。
何とか完成まで頑張る予定です。

Hello, there!
I posted one more bobbin lace work today, 'cos the Japanese friends of mine are maybe waiting to resume my works related on needleworks.

I'm knitting (weaving) this tule lace small doily. Actually this is now interrupted by an asthma. I began this after finishing the sampler shared you on Sep. 8th. I don't feel bad now and I want to continue to knit, but I have a slight fever even now. I have to control myself to resume it.

Thanks for looking! :)

Terrible summer and an asthma

Hi, there!

 I came back on my blog, but oh wow, today is September 8th! I'm very very sorry I couldn't visit any blogs, websites or Flickr pages for a couple of weeks.
I had an asthma attack around 20th August, and it was slightly then. But it hasn't been improved, and I came to have any other symptoms (caught cold by air conditioners. - I was so stupid. All the rooms in my house were well air‐conditioned, 'cause it was intense heat of summer outside and I had feverish. But the rooms were TOO COLD! I had CHILLS!) besides an asthma.
I've been a patient for about one and a half years. I thought it caused by the mental shock of my mother's death and my living environment was changed significantly. But I have sometimes slight symptoms even now. I have this kinds of DNA? Oh No!
I'm in recovery, I have a cough though.
I make it a rule to think positively, 'it improves than the last year'. I had fatigue fractures 4 times by the persistent coughs in 2008. And actually I had many stresses in this summer - natural disasters of flood and earthquakes, and diseases of my father's and mine. To tell you the truth, I've been so scary of fractures this times...

Today I had no photo related on paper crafts. So I introduce my bobbin lace.

 I made this for the first time in about a year. This was a tule lace (point ground lace) sampler for practicing which I made in middle of last month.
The bobbin folder is stamped the Hero Arts 'Heart Flower Blossomes' stamp. Haha.
I made 2 more folders last year. I love its antique look. <3

Thank you for peeking! :)
