April 6th, 2019 Annual Meeting
“Little Japanese
Girl”
This lovely Little Japanese Girl worked
in Rozashi is a traditional oriental motif often used to fete the occasion
Girls’ Doll Festival Day which is celebrated on March
3rd. On this day at home, dolls are displayed on shelves
and girls are dressed in their finest clothes, and often taken to nearby
shrines to thank guardian deities for their healthy growth and good
health. This custom is also observed to help teach young girls
femininity. This ancient Japanese technique employs silk and metallic
threads on a specially woven silk canvas-like fabric called Ro. The
thread used is a twisted silk thread and a metallic laquered thread with
a silk core. Four basic Rozashi stitches will be taught with some
variations. Finishing techniques will be explored.
