EmbroideryEmbroidery

 Soft hand-embroidered bookmarks create an atmosphere of peace and quiet.
It is believed that in order to tell whether an embroidered article is handmade or machine-made you have only to hold your hand, palm down, over it. If you feel it is warm, it is the good energy of the skilful embroiderer’s hands radiating from this handicraft.
