    More about the rose embroidery for my friends hood .5.1 – the rose leaf embroidery or my first “silk shading” :)

    2017/01/12

    In my last posting “More about the rose embroidery for my friends hood .5 – the rose leaf embroidery or my first “silk shading” 🙂” I showed you how I established the foundation for the silk shading technique by creating an initial layer along the outer border of one of my rose leaves. And today we are going to take a look at the second step concerning the rose leaf and the above mentioned silk shading technique.

    I wish you all a happy new year! And hope that you had a good and enjoyable “slide” from the old year into the new one, as we tend to say in Austria! 😀 Looking retrospectively at the last year, it amazes me how fast 2016 actually went by. The last year was very busy, as it was filled with many different projects, research, learning, a lot of laughter and love but also some tears as some of us had to say good bye to some dear friends and family members…

  • positive review  Racaire made and appliqué and embroidered Rose hood for me as a commissioned present. It is stunning, the skill and attention to detail are superb. It is one of the most beautiful things I own. Wool with silk and gold work.

    positive review  Ordered the octopus stamped fabric. They were a dream to work with!! Patiently answered all my questions and when I finally made my decision the fabric was shipped and arrived very quickly!! I definitely recommend Racaire’s Workshop for any really cool custom stamped fabrics!!

  • had the lovely experience of wandering into this pop-up shop at an EMP event. not only is the seller one of the absolute sweetest people (and extremely historically knowledgeable!) but her items are also all extremely high quality and more than worth the cost. i bought two coifs and was very pleased with how comfortable they were while also remaining steadfast on my head without needing any sort of pins.

    positive review  In 2017, I had the distinct pleasure of having Racaire work on my coronation dress. Her seamstress skills are unmatched and she was a joy to work with. She made me feel like a Queen. 👑👸👑

    I've been following the shop for a while, trying to decide what I would have commissioned. Instead I fell in love with and impulse-bought a gorgeous dragonfly scarf that will be perfect for one of my Ren Faire costumes. It arrived quickly and lovingly packaged, and it's even better than I could imagine! You can tell it was made with love and with soul. I'm already excited about my next purchase and I don't even know what it is yet!
