All things Japanese

I have a Japanese theme going in my shop for the next couple of weeks, as those of you who follow my Mulberry Green Stories will know and I have embroidered some Japanese doll pictures suitable for little girls’ bedrooms. I thought it might be a nice topic for the forums, as I bet a lot of you have Japanese style items that you could show everyone.

I made this little Japanese print dress this afternoon. I love the turquoise and red combination of the Alexander Henry fabric.

I went through a Japanese phase a few years back, I even tried to teach myself to speak Japanese with limited success.
I made this A4 print a while back. I love their fashions and the history of their look.

Keishi Pearls! The name means “poppy” in japanese and refers to pearls from cultivated mussels which form without a nucleus because the shell fish has managed to spit out the glass bead that was there to make the pearl. Now they are some of the most sought after pearls available.
