... Uzbekistan Embroidered Panel...A suzani is a large, hand-embroidered textile panel; the word comes from the Persian word suzan, which means needle. ...Panel of embroidered Suzani on green polyester fabric with maroon velvet border. ...Textile Uzbekistan Embroidered Panel ...A suzani is a large, hand-embroidered textile panel; the word comes from the Persian word suzan, which means needle. Originating from nomadic tribes in Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and other Central Asian countries, suzanis have become highly collectable and valued for their beautiful decoration and fine craftsmanship. They were traditionally made by brides and their mothers as part of a dowry, and presented to the groom on his wedding day. They represented the binding together of two families, and were adorned with symbols of luck, health, long life and fertility. Suzanis are made from cotton, sometimes silk. The pattern is first drawn onto the cotton, before being embroidered on narrow portable looms. They are usually produced in two or more pieces, meaning that they can be worked on by more than one person, before being stitched together. Just four stitches — tambour, basma, chain and kanda-khayol Panel of embroidered Suzani on green polyester fabric with maroon velvet border. Embroidered with stylized floral circular designs and foliage. Designs are embroidered in white, yellow, orange, bronze, pink, brown and black thread in tambour stitch. Backing is red cotton fabric.

Embroiderers Guild, VictoriaTextile - Embroidered Panel Jenny Rowe, Jennifer Rowe, 2024
... Embroidered Panel Jenny Rowe...Silk dupion panel designed and embroidered with surface embroidery using many different stitches and threads. ...Embellished with metal cogs in a nod to steam punk style. Textile Embroidered Panel Jenny Rowe Jennifer Rowe ...Jenny Rowe says: This piece was inspired by some hand dyed threads, interesting fabrics and a piece called Soleil Rouge by Celcile Meraglia which I saw on Pinterest. I began by ironing various size circles and ovals on to the silk dupion backing. I then drew the lines that surround them and divided the spaces. These were worked by couching various threads and tapes, loads o chain stitch (my favourite) whipped, laced, over worked with running stitch in a contrasting colour or with buttonhole stitch worked into the side. Stitches used for the circles and filling include - fly , lazy daisy, Chinese and French knots, raised chain bands, up and down buttonhole, spider web, herringbone, feather, Palestrina, Roumanian and seed stitches. I used these as the whim took me and I kept going back and forth adding layers until I just had to say STOP! Finally I added a few cogs in a nod to steam punk, one of my favourite styles. It was a wonderful piece to use many different stitches and all those lovely threads in your stash. I had tremendous fun stitching this.

... Embroidered Hmong Dress Panel...Hill Tribe clothing panel in progress in fuchsia pinks and royal blue, with white, green, orange highlights. Embroidered in buttonhole stitch and satin stitch filling. ...Textile Embroidered Hmong Dress Panel ...During periods of harsh persecution, Hmong women developed a way to record their history by weaving it directly into their clothing. Called "pajntaub" , which means "flower cloth", and it was traditionally practiced only by the women of the community. Using a variety of complex stitching techniques, they created intricate geometric patterns. These designs were not just for decoration on clothes, collars and baby carriers. At times when their own language was suppressed, these symbols served as a form of communication and cultural documentation, with history hidden in the very pleats of their skirts. This tradition took on a new powerful meaning in the late 1970's after the wars in Southeast Asia. Forced into refugee camps in Thailand, Hmong women began creating "story cloths". These were larger tapestries that documented their lives, their traditions, and their harrowing journey from their homelands to the camps. These story cloths became a way to tell the world what had happened to them . They also became a vital source of income, sometimes selling for just one dollar, which helped families survive in the camps. Hmong Archives; Library of Congress.
