White Threads FlossTube #34 – Sardinian dress ups

In today’s video I share some very precious holiday memories with you. While we were in Sardinia, for me to research my book, “Sardinian Knotted Embroidery”, we were fortunate to spend some time with some lovely Sardinian ladies who showed us some traditional costumes from Desulo, in Sardinia. I have heaps of photos of gorgeous embroidery, both whitework and brightly coloured work, for your viewing pleasure. And as always, there’s a story to go with it.

Thanks to the three lovely ladies who made this very special experience possible. It was the sort of beautiful cultural exchange that you never expect, and so therefore treasure forevermore. Grazie!
