Hi Leslie, yes Japanese and Chinese embroidery are similar in a lot of areas. Many of the techniques originated in China and were introduced to Japan by Korean artisans. As far as I know, the double sides embroider you mention is not practiced in Japan but I have seen examples form over countries in the region. It is magnificant! I am in the early stages of learning JE, I have a lot of techiques still to learn, each Phases introduces the student to new techniques, it is an exciting journey.
Leslie, I think that I read that you do embroidery from India??? Can I pick your brain about it?? First of all I just enjoy the art work from India it is wonderful. I am currentley in an RR where a lady wants ti have India themed blocks. So now is the right time to explore the diffrent types of embroidery from India.
Which would you suggest?? Am I right when I am thinking that the diffrent regions of India have their own embroidery styles??
Can you help me out???
