Today I have some questions for my Brazilian readers, of whom I believe there are a few. I am ashamed to admit that I know very little about the state of the embroidery world in Brazil. And so, I’d like to know more!<\/p>\n
Is embroidery done much in Brazil? Apart from the style of embroidery known to me as Brazilian embroidery – I’m thinking it probably has a different name within Brazil – are there other traditional styles in Brazil?<\/p>\n
Do you have many Brazilian embroidery magazines? Are there publishers of craft books in Brazil? Do they generate their own publications, or are they mostly translations of other-language books from elsewhere in the world?<\/p>\n
South America is on my personal to-do list for travel, but my husband has his own personal list where South America comes a little lower down. So I don’t think we’ll be getting there any time soon, however much I’d like to! (Of course, the Olympics are in Brazil in 2016, but our Olympically-aspiring gymnast will be too young to qualify for those Olympics!)<\/p>\n
You are welcome to reply in Portuguese, if that is easier for you. While I don’t speak Portuguese, other than the basics such as obrigada and ol\u00e1, I can use online translation tools to help me understand the gist of what you are saying.<\/p>\n
