I love Hungarian embroidery! Thanks for sharing

Diane Kappa said...: Hi,
A friend just emailed me and told me you posted one of my photos. I would like to thank you for giving me credit. Have you been to Hungary? I have lived here for over a year now and the rich folk culture was one of the drawing factors for my move to Hungary. I just love the Matyó embroidery and color! So inspiring!; October 28, 2009 at 7:58 AM
