Today I can present eight new contributions.

#40-45
Six Italian friends who are passionate embroiderers sent their lovely contributions together. Their names are Piera Tavano, Fausta Galantucci, Maria Grazia Callerio, Rosa Cavallaro, Rosaria Coppino, Maura Fragonara.

They all used the same fabric measurement, but some oriented their designs one way and others another way.
They all chose the same main motifs but designed them very differently. The arrangements of stitches are also varied. So six similar, but unique, charming embroideries were established.

Piera wrote – roughly translated: “We are a group of embroiderers, and we live in Novara, a town located in northern Italy.
We are fond of embroidery, and we really like Schwalm whitework because it is very elegant and impressive.
When we read about the project, which was presented in March on Luzine´s blog, we immediately thought to participate.
Despite the difficulties of seeing one another and moving around the city, we managed to find a way to prepare 6 linen pieces to be embroidered and got to work.
We chose a heart motif and filled it with an openwork pattern because we thought to come out of this dark period with emotion and love, and we would find the light again. Tulips have given us faith in God and into the future, while buttercups will eventually give us back the meaning of life beyond pain and suffering.
We hope that our contributions will arrive in time to be included in the beautiful project.”

Siamo un gruppo di ricamatrici e abitiamo a Novara, una città che si trova nel Nord Italia.
Siamo appasionate di ricamo e ci piace moltissimo il Ricamo d´Assia perchè è molto elegante ed evocativo.
Quando abbiamo letto del suo progetto che ha presentato a Marzo sul suo blog, abbiamo subito pensato di partecipare.
Nonostante le difficoltà che c´erano di vederci e di spostarci in città, siamo riuscite a trovare il modo per preparare 6 piastrelle da ricamare e ci siamo messe all´opera.
Abbiamo pensato di usare il cuore lavorato a rete perchè con sentimento e amore usciremo da questo periodo buio e ritroveremo la luce. I tulipani ci hanno regalato la fede in Dio e nel futuro mentre i ranuncoli alla fine ci potranno restituire il senso della vita oltre il dolore e la sofferenza.
Speriamo che le nostre piastrelle arrivino in tempo utile per essere incluse nel suo bellissimo progetto.

Hedwig Clausmeyer from Germany already contributed pieces #7 and #31–#35.

This time she donated two pretty little stars as possible space fillers, but they are too good for that purpose.

You can see more contributions in Update 13.
