Olá! This week I remembered that I had some photos that I've not showed yet.
So... come with me and accept my invitation to continue our visit to a very special museum... to Portugal, a living museum of embroidery...
As I told you in our
first visit it is very common in antiques and flea street markets to find someone selling vintage embroidery. These photos are from a street market in Estremoz, but all around Portugal you'll find the same... from the North to the South of our country... this happens in the street... but
indoors it is no different. I believe you'll find a piece of embroidery almost in every single home.
And this makes me think of all the women that embroidered these stitches that lasted until today... Can you imagine so many hours? So many women...
