How to embroidery

"Free My Mind"

The more i think about it the more I am worried how is the flow going. So, i have think carefully that i need to find a backup who is still doing this traditional embroidery or we cal it as "sulam goyang" in Malay word. This "sulam goyang" already exist since I have not been born again. Can you think how old is it. So, we know how the pattern going? The pattern is so classical and limited but I am still need to make an improvement on the pattern to be contemporary maybe and not being applied just on a table cloth, bad sheet and so on. Maybe i can applied it on flannel shirt or so on? 🤔 But, I need to let it free my mind and focus on my graduate week 😜 Honestly, I am feel so exciteddand all my batch in the same Diploma are excited. We all busy to find a good cloth,shoes and everything to look good on our special day. So stay tuned guy!

So here i do about Embroidery

  Hi loggers! Every embroidery techniques have their own personality. For what i've found a for my embroidery research is more classical 60's embroidery were made by Embah Hampsaton who is still have a patience doing this handicraft on the table cloth. Table cloth or malay people called it as "sepprah". "Sepprah" is using as a covered the floor or as table cloth to be more neat and creative and manners when we put variety food onto it. It's so classical pattern as u can see here made by "Bah" so i think, I'm gonna innovate the motif to be an modern pattern hmmmmm there's a lot of step that I'm gonna learn here and I'm really sure that my "Bah" gonna help me to this.
