A new Hobby

In my traveling down time, I’ve decided to start a new Hobbie. I’m learning Hungarian embroidery.   It is a dying art as many just don’t have the time they used to. Many childrev were taught at a young age to sew. One woman was about 4 when her mother handed her a needle and thread.  When there was idle time you were sewing

The style is different from most. The “wrong” side should be as beautiful as the “right” side. Leaving no threads or knots. We will definitely not judge my first one. The colors are very bright and vivid. It was to bring joy and be happy as back in the day times were not always so happy.

When walking the streets and shops you see many table linens, aprons, dresses, shirts and even bridal gowns emblazes with their artwork. As one women stated it does take a long time but will be enjoyed by generations. Happy day to you. IMG_0293
