Have you ever seen a butterfly with a human face?
Have you ever seen a dragon with a fish tail?
In Miao embroidery, anything is possible.
Miao embroidery is an embroidery skill inherited from the Miao people (subtitle: Miao embroidery)
It is the crystallization of the diligence and wisdom of Miao girls.
Legend has it that there was a female leader named Lan Juan, (subtitle: Lan Juan)
In order to remember the route of long-distance migration (subtitle: Miao Min migrates south)
I came up with a way to mark the road with colored thread embroidery.
Every time I cross the river and climb the mountains and mountains,
embroidered a symbol on the body,
When he arrived at his destination, his entire body was embroidered with patterns from his collar to his trousers.
Since then, Miao girls have to wear a dress embroidered by hand when they get married.
To inherit the wisdom and beauty handed down by our predecessors.
Nowadays, the theme of Miao embroidery mostly originates from the totem worship of the Miao people.
Butterfly patterns, bird patterns, fish patterns, flowers and plants are all common patterns (subtitles: butterfly patterns, bird patterns, fish patterns, flowers, plants)
Among them, the butterfly pattern is the most important.
The Miao people believe that "Mother Butterfly" is one of the ancestors of human beings. (Subtitle: Mother Butterfly)
will bless her children.
Of course, Miao embroidery with dragon pattern is also indispensable.
The dragon is the symbol of Han culture.
Represents solemnity and authority.
But under the skillful hands of the Miao girl,
The head of the bull, the body of the fish, and the claws of the eagle can be freely added to the Miaolong,
Make the traditional Chinese dragon more close, cute and ethnic.
Miao embroidery is not bound by the order of traditional embroidery.
It all depends on the abundant imagination and romantic talent of Miao girls.
Let's have a fantastic encounter with Miao Embroidery!
