Rosemaling - another attempt...

As I had posted earlier, I find the style of rosemailing very very pleasing. this was also done a while back, but with shifting and unpacking, it got put away in an unlikely box and i did not discover this until a few days back...am sooo happy i found it..and I did find another fabric painting that I had done only half way..
as soon as i find time to complete it, I will post that too..

Meanwhile, I am trying to make a slightly grand dress for my daugter..have lots of designs in my mind..and as i am a dince at sewing with machines, I have to do the stitching with hand, unless I find someone to stitch it for me!!!

Rosemaling - love it !!!

This is one instance where the pleasure I get while reading a book just doubled...!!!!...(imagine that...)

I was reading a book about a Norwegian girl lost at sea and her life afterwards...she thanks the people who rescue her and give her refuge by decorating a wooden box, decorating music sheets and painting decorative hair combs in the Rosemaling style..

So I searched the internet and found a great site with all things imaginable,decorated in this style...

And given here is my attempt at Rosemailing...I have not decided whether I should make it a wall hanging or make a pillow cushion out of it.....I just know that it is a highly addictive way to paint.

I would really love to get some comments/suggestions on this one....In case anyone is wondering, I used acrylic paint...
