The stunning traditional textile art of khayamiya made in Egypt is in danger of being lost with only twenty makers still creating the complex decorative appliqué pieces which take years to learn how to do. The art may date back to the time of the pharaohs and was originally used for tent decoration.

Bien vivre son éco-anxiété

Cyanotype brodé – A5

Ça faisait un bout de temps que je voulais reprendre les cyanotypes brodés. Par manque de temps et d’énergie, j’avais dû laisser ça de côté... Mais ça m’a permis de mûrir mes idées et ma pratique 😊

Ça fait vraiment du bien de reprendre ces projets !

Ce modèle sera disponible au Schmirlab à l’occasion de leur Schmirboule de Noël🎄
