Arraiolos stitch framed handmade embroidery...
... is new way of working the
Arraiolos stitch - double cross stitch .
Using cotton string on aida-sabric and crafting always
the
Arraiolos stitch, I handmade a embroidery – put between two sheets of plexiglass and
a frame – is showed in a wall. Firstly I selected the
mosaics and made a chromatic study. Secondly I made the
master pattern of witch one to be craft in
Arraiolos stitch. Finally I handcraft the bordarie spending, in average,
one and half month
per
Quadro. This work of
re-invention and execution of the
master pattern to
Arraiolos stitch is
personal and exclusive and cannot be reproduced without
my express consent. All the
master patterns are duly registered with
Inspecção Geral da Actividades Culturais. Each
Quadro has a label - on which the work’s
name and the
author are identified - an
axe seal and is followed with a
certificate including the symbol recognizing
Handcraft Productive Unit.
