What does needlework mean?

The word "red" of "female red" should be pronounced "g not Gūng". Nvhong is a folk art in central China. In the past, it mostly referred to women's needlework, such as knitting, knitting, sewing, embroidery, patchwork, tapestry embroidery, flower arrangement, pulp dyeing and so on. Generally speaking, these traditional arts handmade by women are called "embroidery".

The skill of needlework is passed down from generation to generation by mother and daughter-in-law, so it can also be called "the art of mother". In ancient times, a woman was judged by her appearance and the red color of women. Therefore, the appearance of needlework often goes hand in hand.

Spinning and weaving

China's textile industry has a long history, and its varieties and colors are diverse, which shows that dressing is an indispensable problem for a civilized country. Textiles are divided into raw materials, such as silk, hemp, kudzu and cotton. Silk weaving is a luxury, while hemp is rare. Since the Song and Yuan Dynasties, cotton planting and cotton weaving have gradually spread throughout the country. In modern times, cotton weaving is still popular among the people.

Sizing dyeing

Sizing and dyeing are two concepts. Slurry means that the woven cloth is soaked in the slurry to make it smooth. In addition, folk woven white homespun, unbleached, has a yellow silk feeling, which is called natural color cloth. Use an old powder-soil powder, which will turn white after sizing. Dyeing refers to dyeing folk dyes, which used to be mainly extracted from plants, that is, modern grass dyeing

sew

Sewing is an overlap. Seam and seam have the meaning of running through each other. Generally speaking, sewing is sewing clothes, and the words sewing and sewing are put together, perhaps to emphasize that sewing a dress requires thousands of stitches! There are indeed sewing machines and garment processing factories to make clothes. It is not difficult to make a dress, but a few years ago, every dress was sewn by a woman.
