  intricate things
the reason why i loooooooooove anthropologie skirts is coz of their unique fabrics, their generous laying thereof, their earthy colors, and their embroidery. things machinemade that are made to look handmade like embroidery's all the rage now, and i am more than happy to be willing zombie consumer. hehehehe.

in grade 6 we were taught embroidery as a craft. i liked it, and miss it right now. embroidery thread and needle wasn't that much more expensive than regular thread and needle. one stitch that i remember is a technique where you overlap stitches. i can't remember its name now. that technique is most effective in rainbow thread.

the thing that resonates most with me is that it's incredibly time consuming - but well worth the time and effort. :-)


lookie that cute purse made of lace and embroidery.


see how well it goes with your partner's, i mean, your boyfriend's shirt. hehehe ;-)
