All the pieces ,to-gether before I did the buttonhole stitch around the edge
It has been quite a stretch for me since I am not much of a crazy patch artist, however with Pat as my mentor I am learning.
Your Old Fashioned Name Is... |
|
Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation.
The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents, beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful.
The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.

I think these are beautiful and it was your puzzle pieces that inspired the puzzle pieces I have posted on my blog. Not embroidery and definetly not the time you put into yours. Thanks for sharing your work.
