West Country Folklore by Tav
Inspired by @pagan-stitches to look into traditional textile designs of my own folk.
Found a Nahua floral pattern from a quechquemitl in an old book and turned it into a cross stitch pattern.
Happy winter Solstice! 🕯️❄️☀️
How do you honor the winter solstice in your home?
"In Slovenia’s Soča Valley, the traditional Pust festival marks the end of winter. Locals wear masks and costumes in a century-old ritual that celebrates the coming of spring"
~ National Geographic
"It's Christmas!"
Song of Rejoicing from: VA - Songs and Dances of Nepal (Folkways, 1964)
Field recordings made in 1959 by members of the American Himalayan Expedition to the Dhaulagiri massif in Western central Nepal. These recordings include items performed by people of the Botea, Sherpa, Takali and Newari peoples as well as by Tibetan refugees who at this time had recently fled Tibet to escape the Chinese invasion.
Recorded By Caspar Cronk
