Tidbits : Flickr Favourites


Last week I started to embroider again, only a bit, and very simple. But I found out again that I love it. So, my flickr favourites today inspire me a lot; it's all about traditional embroidery.
For more flickr favourites see ArtMind's blog.

Embroidered national costumes are always so impressive. And a great value for next generations. I wish I could embroider like my grand-grandmother used to...

I love this kind of colorful traditional embroidery so much! I used to have a blouse from Hungary which my Mom bought when she was young. The embroidery was so, so, so beautiful. I'm still sad, that I lost the blouse when my suitcase was stolen some years ago.
