What are the characteristics and styles of Miao paper-cutting?

Paper-cutting of ethnic minorities represented by Miao nationality is mainly used as embroidery manuscript. The diversity of Miao embroidery lies in the richness of paper-cut patterns. Miao paper-cut composition is full, the content is grotesque, the knife work is concise and powerful, and the pattern is delicate. Because it is necessary to express the requirements of embroidery technology in paper-cutting, such as the sharp points in the stitch, it is often necessary to express them by using the dotted line composed of cut points or the method of not cutting empty. These skills make paper-cutting interesting.
