THE
FIRST
TWELVE
The first
twelve temari I worked were taken mainly from 'Temari: How to
make Japanese Thread Balls' by Diana Vandervoort (ISBN: 0-87040-881-X)
and I have used her titles for those balls. I added some designs from
Temarikai.com which looked interesting, and while I was working them I
bought some beginner's books from Japan and I replaced one of Diana
Vandervoort's designs with a similar one from Yashashii Temari (Cosmo
1) by Chiyoko Ozaki (ISBN: 4-8377-0279-1).
After the
first twelve I worked three designs that had intrigued me.
The first, a variation of 'Shibaraku', was taken from Atarashii Temari
(Cosmo 3) by Chiyoko Ozaki (ISBN: 4-8377-0281-3) where it appears in
the background of an illustration but no instructions are given. The
second was taken from a photograph on the internet (a Flickr account -
temari_grace). And the third was taken from Hana Temari Nyumon by Yoko
Takahara (ISBN: 4-8377-0395-2).
