Cuts You Up (Temari 100)
This is a complex 10 division that results in an elaborate series of pentagons, triangles, and diamonds being created with marking threads. Layers of bright purple and cream bands are alternated and interwoven using a modified kousa kagari technique, creating a bold pattern. This temari is an all-over design - the surface of the ball (mari) is completely covered by embroidery.
Size: approx. 5.3" diameter
Materials: Rice husks, fiberfill, yarn, sewing thread, embroidery thread, rattle
Named after the song “Cuts You Up” by Peter Murphy.
