cheerfully looking towards spring

Can't fool anyone. Autumn is my favorite season, but i'm a Spring girl. All good things happen to me in Spring . And there are quite a few goodies in the good news dept, but i need a go ahead to spill the beans :D
However, one of the good news is the lucky find in Pin Tangle of this link about net embroidery.It was a very exciting find that will definitely add another dialog here.
i'm anxious to start stitching.

And as an aside i had noticed some change in parts of the tulle, not discernible to the eye, but a tactile sensation. Thanks to the link i was able to infer that the mantilla had been repaired and some pieces of new tulle had been added. So fine a job that you can't tell with a naked eye.
Now i can almost be sure that the mantilla belonged to my mother in law's mother.
i feel humbled and graced.

There are lots of creative blogs that i admire. They are a source of inspiration and they make me laugh and think . Here's a list of them:

• Ito de- for the japonaiserie
• Une femme d' un certain age- there's style after fifty
• Riihivilla- natural dyeing in a systematic way
• Artnlight- inspiration, so much going on beyond our borders
• Sakura Snow- beautiful photos and drawings
• Food wishes- for pure pleasure or for when you're stuck and don't know what to cook
  

Check them out and enjoy!

1-2- cha cha cha

It seems that i have limited brain space and currently all of it is occupied by/with Nihongo and its intricacies.
i have been working on this series as on automatic writing. Just flowing out.
And it has taken Jude and MargB astute comments to put me on track and start making associations. DUHH!!
Curious to see what the effect of establishing all those associations will be.

For the time being here's the latest postcard. Lovely tyvek again. This time digi printed on an iridescent background. And pleated tulle, something i reclaimed from a postcard i made last year.
Check my Flickr for some explanatory notes on the card.
And if someone knows the name of those pom pom trimmings please leave a message.

Back to Nihongo.　ときょう　が　いちばん多きです
