La soffitta del tempo perduto...

....è là , nella mente e nel sogno, dove è possibile recuperare le speranze e le aspettative, dove volere è potere e tutto diviene possibile, dove la fantasia e la creatività non vengono strangolate dai ritmi di una vita frenetica ed il tempo scorre lentamente, dove la mente vola libera senza restrizioni, dove finalmente si è liberi di essere e ci si può rifugiare e prendere un respiro.

The attic of the lost time....is there, in the mind and dreams, where is possible to recover the hopes and the expectations, where what you want is what you can and everything becomes possible, where fantasy and creativity are not strangled from the rhythms of a phrenetic life and time flows slowly, where the mind flyes free with no restrictions, where finally one is free of being and can refuge in and take a breath.

    This is just gorgeous! I would like to do Jacobean style crewel work at some point, but I'm just starting out in embroidery. Your work is beautiful!

    Thank you Gina, there is a free pattern for Jacobean Crewel embroidery in one of my old post that you may use if you like.

    your bird came out beautiful Francesca! There is a similar bird worked all in silver on an early pair of gauntlets that I want to work into my casket some way or t'other~ cant wait to see yours all completed! Have you decided yet what it will be? Would make a beautiful cushion top....or dare I suggest the front of a tea cozy. XOXOXO

      Thank you Rachael ! I'm following the growing of your flat casket and you are doing an wonderful job.
      Still not sure what this is going to be, size is 30x30 cm so yes, it could maybe be a little cushion or a framed panel (this way it will be protect by the glass which is something that I prefer); I would like to be able to make also the bobbin lace spangled trim to surround it but it will take a lot of time and I have so many stuffs on the way that I need to put the word "end" on something...will see....

    I love the colours, too, not to mention the beautiful needlework.
