Buonpomeriggio all. Today here in Pisa is a beautiful sunny day. Invece ? Not really, according to the traditions popular.
On 2 February, in fact, the Catholic Church celebrated the feast of the Presentation in the Temple of small Child Jesus, also called Candlemas because on this day are blessed candle, symbol of Christ " light for nations. " E 'in this way that the old man Simeon called Jesus at the moment of His presentation in the Temple of Jerusalem, as prescribed by law for the firstborn Jewish males (source Wikipedia).
Presentation of Jesus in the temple
Giotto - Scrovegni Chapel
not know if this is even on your side, but there exists a saying
for Candlemas,
if it rains or hail winter we would be, but if it is
pale sun or the sun are always a mid-winter.
here on February 2 was a beautiful sun! So ...
... maybe just like I hope not !
At home, however, have sprung so many beautiful roses. Roses are special, embroidered by the wisdom of Rita.
If you want to know how you make, look here
Rita and I we were both members of the Swap Let's know Lara.
knew to be matched with each other since the intent of this swap was the one to get acquainted. By Rita we began an exchange of letters (you can also say e-mail correspondence, I was trying, I say it because it is always of letters) that still continues and this - dear Rita I turn directly to you - I'm happy.
Demonstrating that you have read carefully what we have written, Rita has put together for me a sweet make-up kits on Atalie schema that fully reflects my taste in designs, colors, embroidery stitches: both, in fact we are not only passionate statements, but also classic embroidery.
Look a little 'how wonderful to be out ...
that inside ...
But I, I made for her a tray since Rita like embroidery have some utility.
The technique I used for embroidery and the small little heart that I have added is that of Broderie Suisse (English Chicken Scratch ). Simple (also suitable for beginners), but in my opinion, versatile, and highly effective.
You can find other work carried out by the technique of Broderie Suisse on the blog of my friend Fiore.
I wish all a good weekend.
