Galician Sleeves (Goose Egg)




I wrote this marvelously narrow goose egg at the Pysanky USA retreat using two Galician embroidery designs. I first wrote the white lines, dyed the egg red, wrote the red lines, then etched the egg back to white (only the large open spaces remained). Galicia (Halychyna) is a large historical region that spans part of eastern Poland into far western Ukraine.
