    2014/03/20

    End-spurt! 😀 …I am very happy to say that I nearly finished the basic embroidery for my 14th century French pouch. Just a rather small section is still not embroidered but I hope to get the information I need to complete it soon. Nevertheless, I enjoy this moment very much and would like to celebrate it with you by sharing some progress pictures – enjoy! 😀   As you can see, the embroidery for the hood for the upper right section is still missing. Concerning this section and also concerning the outlines for the figures I am waiting for the decision of my customer concerning his preferred colors. Btw. this…

    14th century French Pouch .1 – which color for the hood? …an easy way to match colors

    2014/03/15

    Well, today I have a very special topic for you concerning my 14th century French pouch: “Which color for the hood?”. Furthermore this is also a very good reason for another posting about very “basic techniques”. In particular I want to show you “an easy way to match colors” today. 🙂 But first things first – as you can imagine, I have many possible colors which I could use for the “hood” in the 2nd section of my 14th century French pouch. Well, it’s great to have so many colors to chose from but that’s also the point where the “grande miseria” begins. Now I have to decide which color out of…

I am very happy to tell that I completed another section – section 3! …and furthermore I have a sneak peek at the 4th section for you at which I already started working – enjoy! 😀 I really like the unicorn – it’s so cute, isn’t it. *lol*

    2014/03/12

    Great news! I am already working at the first tutorial for the second “Craft with Racaire” project – my fast and easy gaming-pouch for my 14th century inspired Backgammon game box or how I started to call it: “the most simple handsewn-pouch I can imagine”. I promise you – just some days and you get to see some new pictures of it including a tutorial how you can make your own. Well, concerning my own gaming-pouch on which my tutorial is based – I am happy to say that I already finished it. Needless to say, but I say it nevertheless – I love it! 😉 Because the tutorial is not…

Customer Reviews

  • Have purchased two items so far from Racaire. Both items are high quality, superb communication from Racaire with design, what was needed fabric wise and pricing. Everything was straight up and done to my exact specifications. She does beautiful work, extremely well made and is truly an artist above the rest. Purchase with confidence and rest assured that what you get will definitely bring the oohs and ahhhs.

    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.

    I’ve admired Racaire’s work for months and recently had a chance to purchase one of her scarves. So delighted with my purchase! The phoenix print on the scarf is so crisp and such a lovely, unique design. The fabric is soft and just the right color to complement the design. Shipping was swift, communication was excellent, and I just really enjoy wearing something that has so much creativity poured into it. I look forward to shopping from Racaire’s Workshop again!
