Ballerina Out of Control (Temari 98)
This is a complex 10 division that results in a series of pentagons, triangles, and diamonds being created with marking threads. Using these shapes as guidelines, I embroidered a variation of a bishamon pattern - tri-leg motifs interwoven with one another. This temari is an all-over design - the surface of the ball (mari) is almost completely covered by embroidery, with only small hexagons of black peaking through.
Size: approx. 4.9" diameter
Materials: Rice husks, fiberfill, yarn, sewing thread, embroidery thread
Named after the song “Ballerina Out of Control” by The Ocean Blue.
