Day 6: 六日目　いよいよ明日は最後の日です。昨日は雨だったが、今日は晴れてきました。@designfestagallery にお客様がいっぱいいらっしゃってくださいました。初めて3Dの刺繍を見たことが多かったそうです。「全部が手で刺繍しましたよ。1個の桜が3時間かかりますよ。」と教えたら、驚いたお客様が多いです。 今日2名が私の商品を買っていただきました。マスクの4枚とイヤーカフの一個です。嬉しいです！お客様も笑顔になるといいんですね。 @zuioushinozuka @sugarnspice_designs @designfesta @designfestagallery #mimihanathreads #embroidery #rose #red #sakura #刺繍　#桜　#薔薇　#手作り　#展示会　#美術　#商品紹介 (at デザインフェスタギャラリー Design Festa Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbmWjJDr8Zt/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ume!! 梅花のピアス. They are hand embroidered and adorned with real pearls. I only made a few plum blossom earrings, but you'll be able to see them at my exhibition in March. 手作りの刺繍のアクセサリーで、本物のパールと飾られています。少数の梅花を作りましたが、3月の展示会で見えますよ。#梅花　#ピアス　#刺繍　#パール　#赤　#手作り　#red #pearl #embroidery #earrings #plumblossom #redflowers #valentinesday #vdaygifts #mimihanathreads https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ_LyreF0i0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Someday you will be beautiful, and shine like a blossom in spring. You will bear the fruit of your beauty, and plant a seed for the next generation. #embroidery #sakura #spring #workinprogressart #mimihanathreads (at Tokyo Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CV4c7gqFKrc/?utm_medium=tumblr

Coming soon to "The Visual Artist's Spotlight," my interview with Jazlyne Sabree is ready! Jazlyne Sabree is a painter in New Jersey, and uses her journalism background as her inspiration for her art. She wants her audience to be inspired by the truth. Art is also a form of therapy for her, because art has always been there for her. @jazlynesabree Look for it in a few hours on your favorite podcast service. It's up on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Music and Google. ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #newpodcasts #podcastlove #podcastinterview #podcastsofinstagram #instapodcast #femalepodcasters #podcast #womenpodcasters #podcastingincolor #newpodcast #newpodcastalert🚨🚨🚨 #womenwhopodcast #itunespodcast #podcasting #podcastersofinstagram #painter #socialjustice #blacklivesmatter #artist #thevisualartistsspotlight (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CREYxy6M5Vk/?utm_medium=tumblr

⁣Another view of the hard work my wrists are feeling at the moment. It might be time to take a break and refresh with drawing. @i.suck.at.drawing.oh.well has my attempts at sketching. 🙈 .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #accessories #bordado #broderie #cherryblossom #embroidered #embroidery #embroideryart #embroiderydesign #embroideryhoop #etsy #etsyfinds #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyshop #fiberart #flowerphotography #flowers #flowerstyle #hairaccessories #handembroidery #handmadeisbetter #makersvillage #mimihanathreads #modernembroidery #nature #needlework #shophandmade #shopsmall #stitching #supporthandmade #supportsmallbusiness (at Tokyo, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQc7eezhy0r/?utm_medium=tumblr

After more than 2 weeks, I finished sewing these sakura blossoms for my exhibition next year in March. One of them I had embroidered a few months ago, but I had extra stamen and used it. Also I used a more natural shape for the pattern. I took a blossom during the sakura season, made a stamp out of it and traced the outlines to make the pattern. This ended up in a shape that I quite like, even if it's not perfectly symmetrical. It just goes to show that even in nature, symmetry is an idea, but not always perfectly achieved. That's what makes nature beautiful. ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #accessories #bordado #broderie #cherryblossom #embroidered #embroidery #embroideryart #embroiderydesign #embroideryhoop #etsy #etsyfinds #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyshop #fiberart #flowerphotography #flowers #flowerstyle #hairaccessories #handembroidery #handmadeisbetter #makersvillage #mimihanathreads #modernembroidery #nature #needlework #shophandmade #shopsmall #stitching #supporthandmade #supportsmallbusiness (at Tokyo, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQc66JgBuxE/?utm_medium=tumblr

I got really excited about showing off what the new bracelets look like on an arm. But... Sigh.. You can only do so much with a phone camera and indoor lighting.. And using myself as a model. I'm better at taking photos of others. #art #beautiful #cardigan #dress #fashion #fashionable #fashionblogger #fashionista #fashionstyle #follow #happy #mimihanathreads #buttons #kimonofabric #instagood #japan #kimono #kyoto #love #modestfashion #mood #nature #ootd #photography #photooftheday #raw #springfashion #style #travel #京都 (at Tokyo, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQYTmPIFLbt/?utm_medium=tumblr

Look!! More bracelets!!! I made a lot of buttons! I like these 6 button bracelets because it shows if the variety of colors in one bracelet. #art #beautiful #cardigan #dress #fashion #fashionable #fashionblogger #fashionista #fashionstyle #follow #happy #mimihanathreads #buttons #kimonofabric #instagood #japan #kimono #kyoto #love #modestfashion #mood #nature #ootd #photography #photooftheday #raw #springfashion #style #travel #京都 (at Tokyo, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQX0DgmsZzf/?utm_medium=tumblr

This is my last order of the year. Why? Well, a couple of reasons. 1. I am holding my very first gallery exhibition next year in March. I really need to focus on that. 2. I am starting the Tokyo Artist Guild, and a lot of my energy is also going into leading that. So look forward to me making more embroidery items for my upcoming exhibition! Just, you can't buy them yet. 😛 ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #etsyshop #modernembroidery #embroideryhoop #handmade #embroidered #fiberart #shophandmade #buttonembroidery #stitching #hairaccessories #makersvillage #makersmovement #needlework #handmadeisbetter #broderie #supportsmallbusiness #etsy #刺繍 #etsyfinds #flowerstyle #embroiderydesign #embroidery #handembroidery #embroideryart #accessories #bordado #shopsmall #supporthandmade #nature #くるみボタン (at Tokyo, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO9pPgTFHKQ/?igshid=zbk87213mtnc

Just so everyone knows. I will finish the remaining orders I have now, and I'm happy to have gotten them, but I'm now invested in focusing on my upcoming gallery exhibition in March of 2022. Embroidery does take a long time to complete, and I felt like I haven't really done much to prepare. I feel anxious, and a bit nervous that at this rate I won't have much to show for my very first exhibition. So please refrain from ordering from me for now. I'll update when I'm ready to receive orders again. Thank you! (at Tokyo, Japan) https://www.instagram.com/p/COaJ1b5F57b/?igshid=1h9lbt6f23le7
