A History of european Embroidery

The Historyof European embroidery is a long and illustrious one with every conceivable surface having been embellished with the art of needlework. Garments and items of all kinds for both religious and domestic use were richly embroidered. During the Reformation in the 16th century, which involved the dissolution of English monasteries, many of the church vestments were burnt. That, coupled with the general wear and tear on domestic items, resulted in few early examples of European embroidery surviving. Those examples that do survive show us what a highly developed art embroidery was. These European traditions in needlework were taken to America during the 17th century by the early settlers and there is a great similarity in both the style and motifs used between early American embroidery and its European counterpart.
In the medieval period up to the end of the 14th century, English embroidery was considered to be the best in Europe and was known as opus anglicanum (English work). It was carried out by guilds of craftsmen and women who were mostly centred on monastic houses and medieval convents. Made solely for the Church and exported throughout Europe, its importance is shown by the fact that many of the best artists, who worked on the books and illuminated manuscripts, were also employed to design these great works of embroidered art.

On the domestic front it was mainly the women of noble houses and their servants who stitched the garments and items used in daily life. No well-born girl would have been considered a lady without being able to sew; all the Queens of Europe were well skilled with their needle. The Spanish Catherine of Aragon, Mary Queen of Scots educated in France and Elizabeth I of England were all noted for their skill at embroidery.
Although embroidery is considered to be a woman’s art there were men who were employed as embroiderers in Royal households.

Queen Elizabeth of York, wife to Henry VII, employed one Robynet, who was paid £2 a year by the Privy Purse. Mary Queen of Scots, who embroidered away the hours of her long imprisonment, employed Pierre Oudry between 1560—67 and later Charles Plouvart as her embroiderers. The popularity of embroidery and the demand for rich and sumptuous garments became so great in medieval Europe that there were various attempts to control what was seen as an excessive desire for finery. Edward III in 1363 decreed that:

“no one whose income was below four hundred marks per annum should wear cloth of gold or embroidery.
Later in 1586 a petition was presented to Catherine de Medici of France on The Extreme Dearness of Living, which declaimed that:
“mills, lands, pastures, woods, and all the revenues are wasted on embroideries, insertions, trimmings, tassels, fringes, hangings, gimps, needlework, small chain stitching, qui/tings, back stitching, etc: new
diversities of which are invented daily”.

Samplers begin to make an appearance in the history of European embroidery from about the beginning of the 16th century although as long as people have embellished and embroidered cloth it is reasonable to suppose that they have made use of a sampler. In essence a sampler is a piece of cloth with diverse patterns and stitches used as a personal reference source. It is also an easy way to experiment with embroidery before starting a major project. Samplers appear in various European countries all at the same time with a great similarity in style and motifs used but there are some notable national differences. Italian samplers show a preference for cut and drawn thread work which seems to be influenced by the lace pattern books that were printed in Venice. Spanish samplers have bright colours and geometric designs perhaps related to the Moorish influence on Spanish decorative arts. German samplers are more restrained in colour and patterns whilst Delft vases can be found in Dutch examples. However, cross stitch is always the main embroidery technique used.

The earliest surviving sampler in England is one from the late 16th century worked by Jane Bostocke in 1598 to commemorate the birth of one Alice Lee but there is sufficient evidence to show that they were a common and useful tool before this date. The earliest mention of a sampler in England is in 1502 as an item in the Privy Purse expenses for that year which refers to a piece of linen cloth bought for Elizabeth of York as ‘. . . a sampler for the Queen.’ Later in 1546 Margaret Thomson of Freestone in Lincolnshire bequeathed in her will, ‘. . . to Alys Pynchebeck my sisters daughter my sampler with seams.’ In 1552 in a household inventory of Edward VI there are two entries relating to samplers: one being a ‘. . . sampler of Normandy canvas wrought with green and black silk . . . and a sampler and book of parchment containing diverse patterns.’ These written records show that sampler making was carried out by the Queen and her ladies of the court and that samplers were imported from continental Europe. These were also important enough in themselves to be recorded. In an age when books were costly and rare the sampler, which was a personal book of patterns and stitches, would have been a valuable item worth passing on to the next generation.
Samplers were also mentioned in literature, an interesting example being in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, where reference is made to a sampler being stitched by two people.

These  are Helena’s words to Hermia :

Have with our needles created both one flower,
Both on one sampler, sitting on one cushion,
Both warbling of one song, both in one key,
As if our hands, our sides, voices and minds,
Had been incorporate. ‘ACT 3 SCENE II

The above quote also seems to imply that samplers were made in childhood. Girls were taught to sew very early on in life and probably did make samplers; however, due to the high standard of workmanship it is generally considered that the surviving examples of early samplers were made by adult needlewomen. It is unlikely, prior to the 16th century that samplers would have been worked by women of all classes: the cost of materials was high (linen cloth and silk thread have always been expensive (and this type of decorative embroidery was probably only worked by wealthy ladies with time on their hands.

In Europe and America the early samplers ore known as ‘band samplers’, which are long thin strips of linen generally three times longer than the width. They appear to have been made from the end of a length of cloth as they mostly have selvedges at the top and bottom with the long sides being hemmed. The patterns on them are worked in bands long enough to show the repeat plus ‘spot’ motifs such as birds, flowers and animals. These band samplers were also a convenient size and shape to use as a reference source as they could be rolled up and stored easily in a work box.
The shape and content of samplers changed gradually during the 17th century until in the 18th century they take on the more familiar square shape with spot motifs and inscriptions. These are generally referred to spot samplers. By this time the sampler had ceased to be a personal book of stitches and become either an exercise in sewing competence produced by young girls or simply an embroidered picture made to be displayed i a frame. There has never been a standard shape or size for a sampler and over the centuries any piece of left over cloth has been used. It was not until 1882 when sampler making had virtually ceased to exist  that Canlfield and Sawards’ Dictionary of Needlework gave written instructions as to what a sampler should be both in ter.ws of its size and design content.

The patterns and motifs found in early samplers tend to be fairly similar from one to another which suggests that they were traditional designs passed on from one generation to the next. From the first half of the 16th century printed pattern books, as design sources for embroiderers, begin to appear in Europe. They were from presses either in Germany, Italy or France and proved so popular that many were reprinted in several editions. One of the most influential of these books was SchOn Neues Modelbuch published by Johann Sibmacher in Nurnberg in 1597, which was later reproduced in England as The Needles Excellency. Richard Shorleykers’ A Scholehouse for the Needle, also published around this time, was full of fruit, flower and leaf spray motifs but more importantly it was the first book to give instructions for enlarging or reducing the size of a design by using a squared grid, a simple and efficient method still used today. The patterns in these books were not necessarily original as there was no copyright law to stop the practice of borrowing designs from all sorts of sources. Motifs used in American samplers prior to the 18th century can be traced back to these European pattern books. Many English ladies went to settle in the new colonies and took their pattern books with them. Often they would make their living by teaching needlework and advertised themselves as having the latest designs from England.

During the 18th century pattern books lost favour with embroiderers in Europe as they tended to use printed fabrics as design sources and increasingly alphabets and moral verses replaced the more decorative spot or band patterns. By the mid 18th century pattern books were being published in America and many of the needlework teachers drew their own patterns and motifs for embroidery. This, coupled with the increasing population of America and the associated need to develop a more refined culture, led to the distinctive American style in samplers. While European samplers were becoming more rigid in content and style, the American ones became freer and more pictorial. Houses and landscapes became the preferred subject for samplers and a variety of materials such as beads, hair, ribbons and even paper were added to the wool or linen background to increase the surface interest. From this point on these American samplers should really be considered as embroidered pictures.

Sewing was an important part of any girl’s education. It was a necessary accomplishment for a young lady and for less fortunate girls good sewing skills would at least afford them reasonable employment. From the 17th century onwards the sampler became a means of not only teaching girls how to sew but also a certificate of their compe tence. Their importance was not lost on teachers and the inclusion of inscriptions and verses served to give the girls a moral education. Later on the craze for map samplers combined the teaching of geography with needlework. These schoolgirl samplers were produced in vast numbers and show the high level of skill achieved by even very young girls.

During the 19th century there was a steady decline in the practice of sampler making as other forms of needlework took over in popularity. Knitting, crochet and tatting were all favoured and popularized by the new magazines aimed at women. Books on needlework became cheap and plentiful and cloth printed with a design ready to stitch was also available. In the middle of the 19th century the sewing machine was invented and the need to teach girls how to sew by hand ceased to be important which led to a sharp decline in sampler making. Nowadays there is a renewed interest in the art of sampler making and many individuals and museums realize the importance of collecting these unique documents of social history.

Nowadays embroidery and cross stitch is not so much a profession anymore and is enjoyed by haberdashery enthusiasts

Motorola Ekes Out Patent Win Over Apple, But Victory is Hollow (Mobiledia)

A German court says Apple violated two of Motorola’s European patents, but
Apple says the ruling was only a technical point and won’t impede its ability
to sell its products.

The court said Apple violated Motorola’s patents for a countdown procedure
pertaining to mobile device transfers and status sync systems. These
violations technically allow for a ban on Apple’s devices in Europe.

But the judgment can’t prohibit Apple sales in reality, as Motorola’s suit
aims at Apple Inc. itself, not the company’s European subsidiary, Apple
Germany, which actually sells the devices in that country. Also, the ruling
didn’t include any specific Apple products to ban.

Apple is expected to apply for a temporary suspension of the court order,
buying time for the company to persuade the court to hold off on enforcing the
ruling.

The court ruling, however, may open up a dialogue between the two companies
over patents and licensing. Motorola says it hopes to keep working with Apple
to resolve the patent issues.

“We will continue to assert ourselves in the protection of these assets, while
also ensuring that our technologies are widely available to end users,” said
Jennifer Erickson, a Motorola spokesperson. “We hope that …

Barbie Fringe

Lace in the Haute Couture world

Lace has established in the high fashion world as a trendy necessity in most blouses and coats. Lace is both affordable and versatile. Designers around the world have adopted this material to suit their collection matching every season. One of the easiest and most fashionable looks to keep you right-on-trend this season is to wear a little lace.

Lace has acquired a fashion staple these days. It is no longer only an evening wear or just a fabric to add to clothes. Some points to take care while using lace:

• As lace provides the main fabric of an outfit rather than just edging or fringing, be careful not to kill the look with fussy accessories. Keep cuts simple and sophisticated. Wear sleek shoes and plain purses
• Wear transparent lace dresses over high turtle-neck sweaters and big boy short-style knickers
• To achieve this spring’s undertones, wear black lace against alabaster skin
• If you prefer your lace in moderation then choose a lace covered handbag or a pair of sophisticated lacy pumps or lace ankle boots
• For an ultra-modern twist, team lace outfits with elbow length gloves and brightly colored opaques

 

Lace is gorgeous. It looks exceptionally good combined with other fabrics or just on its own. But beware of too much of it, because it will look unflattering. Choose just one item in lace to look great. More than one will turn you into a Barbie girl – the effect you hardly wish to.

Top Brands like Prada, Balmain, Givenchy or Versace resort to lace while fashioning their collection. This old technique in clothes has been revived by giving modern shapes. Lace has become an integral part of a woman’s life today. The finished look of an outfit tailored with lace gives a sophisticated, sharp and feminine with an antique feel, from layered lace to transparent outfits in on-trend sculpted shapes.

This spring season sees lace in all shapes and forms, from lace covered purses and shoes to lace dresses, skirts and coats. Popular fashion diva Prada has in its spring collection, layered buttoned skirts sculpted with lace in bold styling. Layered lace on tweeds is another pick of the high fashion this spring.

Lace exports have gained popularity and lace manufacturers have a field day now that this material has gained huge proportion in the exports. Lace manufacturing industry and lace exports can now be termed as very lucrative businesses in the fashion industry.

Love of vintage jewelry is deep rooted

Human taste does not remain the same, it keeps changing. It is impossible to predict how long a fashion would ride the tide. Very quickly people get tired with what they have and go searching for something new. However, jewelry which was made about eighty years ago has managed to remain dominant in the market to this day. Articles which have a very long life in the market are known as vintage articles. There are many dealers who deal with the vintage jewelry. The designs and the jewels which were made in the years 1920 to 1950 have gained the honor of being known as vintage jewelry.

 

Of all the pieces vintage rings are the most popular and are soought after till date. The designs are very bold and are made with several precious stones including diamonds, topaz and sapphires which are slightly expensive. There are others which are not so very expensive are have pearls and corals. There is one to suit every budget. They come in a combination of old designs and delicate filigree work. All the rings are made with total dedication regardless of the cost of the metal. A vintage ring can be made of gold, silver, white gold and platinum. People feel proud to include these rings into their family heirlooms.

 

It is not an exaggeration when we say that women and jewelry are inseparable. It would prove to be a perfect gift for any women. It is not possible to measure the joy and the pride of bride who receives a vintage wedding ring. An excellent collection of handcrafted wedding bands can be found. The spellbinding beauty of vintage gold rings and these bands is just like a reminder of the interesting relationship which the newlyweds would experience. Both the experiences are exotic in nature.  The wedding band is as dear as the relationship solemnized with it. The fine and delicate workmanship on the ring is a true representation of the kind of relationship which they would share. It is strong like a rope yet very delicate.

 

Beautiful silver vintage rings with exquisite cut work form a section of the collection which one should not miss. Beautiful rings have lace like work crafted on them. A ring made of a combination of gold and silver rings is entwined with the help of rope like structure with delicate work crafted on them to make them standout. Rings which are made only of silver are equally beautiful. The workmanship is not compromised because of the value of the metal.

 

Thousands of designers have spring in the field of jewelry designing. None could replace the love for the jewelry of the period nor could execute an iota of difference in the love for the product. They are timeless and here to stay for a pretty long time. The scoring factor for them is their beauty.

Why does my guy friend always say sweet dreams to me?

Everytime, even if we’re not in a conversation at all, he would just text me saying that he’s sleeping and sweet dreams. Why?

If you are close, (as friends)
maybe he is just being polite/caring.

If you’re not that close,
he might like you as more than a friend.

He’s thinking of you.

Cutting the Cost of Your Wedding Flowers

Weddings are almost always synonymous to flowers. At every point of the wedding, from the ceremony to the reception, flowers are present in the decorations, as bouquets, and in the attire of the entourage. The cost of flowers and floral arrangement can easily double or triple depending on when you order them, the choice of flowers, and the size and quantity ordered.

 

Venue – The chosen venue can significantly impact your floral costs. If you have a bare room or hall, you will really need to soften up or dress up the place with flowers and other décor such as ribbons or bouquets. However, if you choose a garden set-up, or a ballroom that has been pre-designed already, you will need just a minimal number of flowers for the venue.

 

Centerpiece – Traditionally, flowers on vases are the ones used for centerpieces. But instead of buying a large number of arranged flowers as centerpieces, why not use alternative decorative items for them.  Use wine bottles laced with ribbons as the centerpiece. You can also use the wedding favors as decorative centerpieces for the meantime, and just give them away or have the guests pick them up from their own table towards the end of the reception. You can use them as alternatives, or you can alternate the arrangements placing flowers, favors, then flowers, in an alternating manner.

 

Silk flowers – There are silk flowers that are available and they are way cheaper than real flowers. What’s more is that they don’t get spoil or wilt towards the end of the reception. You can choose from a variety of silk flowers that are available in every flower kind and color as well.

 

DIY flowers – You can ask the local florist from a supermarket or grocery near you to prepare flowers beforehand. On the day of the wedding, have family and friends prepare them for the event. They need not be as good-looking as professional arrangements, but some ribbons and small doses of laces here and there can them look really good.

 

Size of bridal bouquet – The bridal bouquet does not always need to be a whole bunch of flowers. It can be a single long-stem rose, or a small bundle of flowers depending on your gown size. Without planning, you can end up buying a very expensive bouquet when in fact you can prepare for them at lower than even half the price.

 

Alternatives – Look for less expensive alternatives to decorating your venue. Ribbons and streamers can be used for the reception hall to create an elegant look without spending a lot of money. You can also use things that will already be needed for the wedding, like food arrangements and wedding favors, as decorations.

 

Flowers can make your wedding truly special. But this does not mean that it has to cost a fortune and take a major chunk of your wedding budget. With the proper planning and a little creativity, you can create your dream floral arrangements without having to break the bank. Check where you can do without the flowers and just focus on select areas where you will truly need them. Flowers in the reception and in some areas of the church are areas where you can greatly cut the cost of your flower expenses.

Any Information on Hostessing in Japan?

I’m really interested in hostessing in Japan, but there are a few things that concern me I’d like some answers to. First, is it safe? I know we’ve all heard about Lucy Blackman, but in all actuality, is it safe for a young caucasion woman to work in Tokyo? I don’t necessarily want to go alone, can you suggest a place I might find other women interested in this line of work? Also, I recently had foot surgery, and while I can stand in short 3inch heels for short periods, I have trouble walking long distances. Will they have any leniency on that? Will I be forced to work on my feet? And one more, what is the pay like?

Every foreigner, who ask this kind of question, is seen they don’t want to listen to the advice.
You ppl seem to giving a broad interpretation to a meager hope.
Of course there are some foreign women who work happily in Japan.
But think. If you American or from Europe, how do you get the working permit? If the club hired you, it would be illegal.
(The caucasian women from the former Soviet nations have that permit. Because their agency (brokers) in their country have took the entertainment visa. And this visa is not issued to the nationals of advanced countries widely. )

I don’t say the possibility is zero. However, the services Japanese customers (some foreign men as well) expect you are different from the Japanese girls. Japanese men know each clubs’ system and rules (eg. chatting only, able to touch, able to ask xxx, etc).
But the place for the foreign hostess, it looks lawless area sometime.
So that nobody can say it is safe.

Decorating for my sweet sixteen birthday party?

I need ideas my theme is all pink and lots of glitter . kinda like a barbie, glam, hollywood, girlie type thing. i was thinking of maybe having a photo-shoot area but how would i do that like what would i have and for everything else what would i be able to do using that theme for like decorating…. please help me out !!

Here’s what you can do for a photo shoot area: 1) Separate a specific area/corner or somewhere where this can be set up. 2) Hang up a large sheet of paper to cover that area of the wall (I would guess that this paper would be pink). 3) Unless you want everyone in the pictures to be standing, set in a chair/stool/something where the girls getting their picture taken can pose on (if they choose to). 4) Get one of those more older looking cameras where the picture comes out right after you take it (this is optional; you can use any camera). 5) Get someone you know (or you could hire someone) who is good at taking pictures to be the photographer.

As for other decorations, have as much pink and glitter as possible- pink icing on cake and/or cupcakes, pink drinks (like pink lemonade), pink balloons & streamers, pink tablecloths, etc.

Hope this helped!

How To Beat COPD

Chronic bronchitis and emphysema (COPD) obstructs airflow through the lungs because the tissue is inflamed. Most often, COPD develops because of exposure to toxins like cigarette smoke. Asthma patients also have difficulty breathing, but their symptoms are caused by allergies or autoimmune conditions. Symptoms common both to COPD and asthma include wheezing, coughing, tightness in the chest, excessive mucus, and shortness of breath (dyspenia).

Having a diagnosis either of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or asthma does not mean you cannot maintain a fulfilling, active lifestyle. Through fitness that focuses on improving your functional ability, you can regain your ability to live a fuller life. Functional Fitness for COPD begins with maximizing your lung capacity. Breathing exercises are therefore the foundation of your wellness plan.

In a recent study, Fedrica Campigotto MD, Luca Pomidori, PhD, Tara Man Amatya, Luciano Bernardi, MD, and Annalisa Cogo, MD researched the effects of deep, slow abdominal breathing on COPD symptoms. Patients who practiced this power breathing experienced less shortness of breath and increased oxygen absorption. (“Efficacy and Tolerability of Yoga Breathing in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Pilot Study.” Journal of Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation and Prevention, March/April 2009).

Beating COPD and asthma begins with learning how your muscles help you to breathe. Your diaphragm, which covers the lower chest area, helps you draws air into the lungs. Your abdominal muscles work with the diaphragm when you exhale. And the intercostal muscles around your ribs allow the ribcage to expand when you inhale.

Muscles that assist in breathing can be strengthened so that they function more effectively. You might think learning a new way to breathe sounds complicated. But the techniques are simple, and with practice, power breathing will come naturally. Any time COPD symptoms interrupt your ability to function; you will know how to beat them.

There are a few things all breathing exercises have in common. You will get in the habit of breathing through your nose. This is very important, because the nasal chambers help to filter air. You will always inhale and exhale slowly, filling your lungs to capacity and then emptying them completely. And functional fitness exercises should be practiced often. You can do this simple power breathing almost anywhere.

COPD and asthma symptoms need not prevent you from getting plenty of functional exercise. If exercise triggers shortness of breath, you might feel discouraged, but your powerful breathing techniques will help you stick to a healthy routine and give you a better quality of life.  Having symptoms of COPD during exercise does not mean you should stop.

Chronic bronchitis and emphysema (COPD) obstructs airflow through the lungs because the tissue is inflamed. Most often, COPD develops because of exposure to toxins like cigarette smoke. Asthma patients also have difficulty breathing, but their symptoms are caused by allergies or autoimmune conditions. Symptoms common both to COPD and asthma include wheezing, coughing, tightness in the chest, excessive mucus, and shortness of breath (dyspenia).

Having a diagnosis either of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or asthma does not mean you cannot maintain a fulfilling, active lifestyle.
