刺绣的介绍（Introduction of Embroidery）

            刺绣在中国已超过2千年悠久的历史。刺绣是一种中国传统手工艺，用针在织物之间画出各种颜色的线，并在其上作画。中国刺绣主要有苏绣、湘绣、蜀绣和粤绣。刺绣是用丝线或其它材料，在丝绸、布帛等织物上，借助针的反复穿刺以构成图案的一种装饰技艺。刺绣的图案和风格随着时代的发展也有所不同，而不同的刺绣的图案可以显示出不同时代的文化风貌，具有象征的寓意。在中国，刺绣图案多数为山水人物，花卉草虫。刺绣是随着缝纫一并发展起来的。刺绣被人们作为装饰服装的重要手段，普遍应用于各类服饰及生活用品中。

            Embroidery has a long history of more than 2,000 years in Chinese. Embroidery is a kind of traditional Chinese handicraft that using needles to draw various colour threads go between fabrics and created drawings on it. The main of Chinese embroidery are Su embroidery, Xiang embroidery, Shu embroidery and Yue embroidery. Embroidery is a kind of decorative skill that uses silk thread or other materials to form patterns on silk, cloth and other fabrics by means of repeated punctures of needles. Embroidery patterns and styles are different with the development of the times and different embroidery patterns can show the cultural styles of different times with symbolic implications. In China, most embroidery patterns are landscape figures, flowers, grasses and insects. Embroidery developed along with sewing. Embroidery is used as an important means of decorating clothing, and is widely used in various clothing and daily necessities.

鉴赏与心得（Appreciation）

            我所绣的双面绣图里主要有腊梅、纱灯和平安文字。图里这个看似梅花的黄色花朵其实是蜡梅。黄色腊梅它的花语是坚强，高尚。因为黄色腊梅有着顽强的生命力，能在其它花朵都还处在休眠阶段的寒冬中盛开，拥有坚强的意志。接着，是纱灯。纱灯是灯笼的一种，是汉族特色手工艺品，起源于2000多年前的西汉时期。每年的农历春节，正月十五元宵节前后，人们都挂起象征团圆意义的红灯笼，来营造一种吉利喜庆的氛围。后来灯笼就成了中国人喜庆的象征。再来就是平安这文字。平安是指希望平和安宁，没发生事故。总结来说，整个图的意思就是，希望在外打拼的亲友能够像纸窗外的黄色腊梅一样，拥有坚强的意志，能够平安的回到家里，和家人团聚，庆祝佳节的意思。

        通过这次亲自刺绣，我体会到了每个刺绣品都有它自身的想法和价值存在。因为当一个人在绣制时会把他自身的情绪和思想通过作品表达出来。例如：如果一个人是想着他所爱的人绣制着，那么看着那作品的人会感到满满的爱意和幸福；如果一个人是以宁静致远的心情绣制着风景或是动物图时，那么看着那作品的人会感到震撼人心与不可思议。

            I embroider the double sided embroidery figure mainly have wintersweet, gauze lantern and peace character. The yellow flower in the fancy work that looks like a plum blossom is actually a wintersweet. The flower language of the yellow wintersweet is strong and noble. This is because yellow wintersweet has a strong vitality,  it can bloom in the winter when other flowers are still in the dormant stage and it has a strong will. Next, the gauze lantern. Gauze lantern is a kind of lantern, is the Han characteristic handicrafts, originated in the Western Han Dynasty more than 2000 years ago. Every year on the Lunar New Year, the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month, people hang up red lanterns symbolising the meaning of reunion, to create an auspicious and festive atmosphere. Later, lanterns have become a symbol of festive for the Chinese people. Then, is the peace character. Peace means hope for peace and tranquillity without accidents. To sum up, the meaning of the whole picture is that I hope my relatives and friends who work outside can have a strong will like the yellow wintersweet outside the paper window, and can safely return home to reunite with their families and celebrate the festival.

            Through this embroidery by myself, I realised that every embroidery have its own ideas and values. This is because when one is embroidering, one's own emotions and thoughts are expressed through the embroidery. For example, if a person is thinking of the one that she loves, then the person who looks at the embroidery will feel full of love and happiness. If a person is making scenery or animal with serene mood, then the person who looks at the embroidery will feel shocking and incredible.
