The Adventures with Diane
United Kingdom
Приєднався 5 лют 2018
Welcome to my World of Adventure
I’m a Medina of the World. I am a Australian/ French Girl living in London, with a passion for Life, Adventure, Travel and Costume.
I spent my childhood growing up in Australia often travelling to France via Asia to visit family along with getting to travel around Europe discovering such wonderful sights and culture, needless to say I got a passion for art, history and people from these experiences that I knew I wanted to become a Costumier which allowed me to explore different worlds from Folk History, Languages spoken, moments in time and incredible people from History that inspired the world they lived in.
Come join me as I travel the world expecting history, culture, food, secret spots and everything else in between.
X Diane

Saludos desde 🇨🇴 estaba aprendiendo sobre los micro diseños Paisley de las corbatas 👔
Personally I would have preferred less talking, more sewing. It is a lovely dress.
To say "It started in the industrial revolution" is so increbibly ignorant and dismissive if it's roots in Persia, then on to India amd just being appropriated by the British textile industry through Colonilism. They just took it and marketed it.
There is a debate about its origin. Some say its origin is Babylonian,some say it's zoroastrian symbol of Iran,(although no zoroastrian temple has this symbol),some say Indian mango/fertility/vegetation of Kasmir symbol,some say Chinese Ying-Yang.Whatever the origin truth is today the paisley embroidery which used in "Textile" is inspired by Kasmiri (Indian) pattern.We have visual evidence of Kasmiri paisley embroidery form from the 11th century where as the Persian embroidery are from the 16-17th century.It's become famous under Mughal Empire (15th century Turkic empire form India) patronage & the pattern which can be seen in Persian paisley textile today is actually similar to the Kasmiri patterns.From the Mughal empire (Turkic) it was exported into Persia & Cetral Asian Turkic Empires.In fact the first architectural visual of paisey is from Haji Piyada Mosque (think to be World's oldest mos...)of Afganistan.This mos... was established after the des&-- tion of a Bu.....ist temple.It can be totally possible that paisey motifs originated independently in Persia,India.
"Subliminal". 😂🤣 The fact that it is clearly visible, means it is above percetual threshold, so "supraliminal"
When I discovered Henry disliked Catholics, he earned my favor. He had the Latin Bible translated into English for common folk. His son continued his Protestant tradition until Bloody Mary reversed it.
It's questionable as to whether the Driuds have any true connections to theses places. The sites pre-date the people originally called Druids.

Thats so beautiful!

ORIGINATED IN CHINA: ua-cam.com/video/mUK1Q91xvHk/v-deo.html
hmmm... Just beforeI clicked on yours, I began my research, and learned this pattern originated in ANCIENT CHINA, as The YIN☯️YANG SYMBOL❣️
very lovely and informative video, i could feel the passion and appreciation for the print! however, as Kashmiris we do not like being called Indian as they are our oppressors. We are our own people

Thanks for this. I just bought 5 shirts with the Paisley design.
Oooo, love that! Last time I made a costume (cosplay) dress was for StarWars premiere at midnight. I assured my son (Obiwan) "everyone" will be wearing a costume! We were the only 2... but did get a lot of compliments. I made Padame Picnic Dress. Took four months, embroidery and beading. Never again....
Well, I'm three years late but.... French seams. You sew the opposite way, sew wrong sides together, right sides out. Sew scant 1/4" zig zag along edge of seam (clip curves to 1/4" before sewing). Go to inside press out the seam well. Fold fabric on seam line and sew on the inside at 3/8" wide, encasing the outside edge. You can also press that and sew it down as well. Completely invisible.
This is beautiful and you did a great job!!
Sorry but it’s Raffia not Rattan
I am keen to know the patterns you are using.
Wow this is great. I love how you LOOVVE your garments. It's ecclectic and one of a kinds. Very cool.💚Australia.
The blue one is my favorite.
It was my 10th Great Grandfather Philip Packer along with his friend Christopher Wren who built Groombridge Place.
Great video!
The mansion was owned by my ancestors, the Packers.
Sounds wonderful!😏 We have yet another person who said they are who owned the place too?🫤🤔
Thanks! Great video ❤
Wow. It's all so beautiful ❤❤❤
❤️🩷🧡💚💙💜
Beautiful work!
in here i mean in WOW how you really got to know that you are preselected?
Hi. Sorry about the late reply. How can I help you answer this!!
Soo envious of your talent. The fabric choice is divine, showcased by beautiful creations.

Awww thank you so so much xx still one of the best weddings I have been too
I can't remember what it's called but like the paisley pattern is made of a bunch of little shapes and those shapes are a Masonic symbol, and I can't remember what it's called but it's the same profile as a plane's wing and some other things so that you can just look at it and be like how do I make like a wing oh they look like that you know? that that picture shows me it.. its kind of like a template
ANCIENT CHINA / ☯️ YIN YANG SYMBOL ua-cam.com/video/mUK1Q91xvHk/v-deo.html
amazing works !
Its origin is in persia...you can find it in almost everything... from clothes, home appliances, ancient buildings. Everything, everywhere And for sure not called paisely You can visit some shops in traditional bazaars of Iran stamping it on clothes.

Is it difficult to keep your balance while standing ? :)
not at all. All about core

Великолепно! Спасибо! 🌷
Is that a pimp hat?

No not at all.. :(
Good channel 🍀💚
Great video thanks
Gorgeous job
Lovely creation! Fellow lotr fan here, I made Eowyn's white dress not long ago, but this really sparked my interest to finally attempt Arwen's red dress.
It was a beautiful adventure. ♥️
STUNNING!!!
It would have be nice to really be able to see the jacket, both reversible sides modeled
She did! 😂
I'm up to about 16th generation American I think now from ancestry research. I'm looking to travel and find more Tappenden and Street names. But I'm both British on both sides. We came out protestant and slightly Lutheran religiously. I've been to Hampton palace and I try to absorb it as I feel so home there. Elizabeth the first was incredible in many ways. She was only in that palace in younger days I read. The original is lost almost forever. Parts even turned into homes. I'd love to own a coin or fabric from that time.. but I take it in when I visit.
