Embroidered Pictures in Vietnam

On our recent trip, Backpacking in Asia with our girls it was nice to see lots of arts and crafts as we travelled.

In Hoi An, Vietnam, we visited a small shop where people were embroidering pictures. 

Embroidered pictures were on sale in every market and they were just beautiful.

You can see from these pictures just how detailed the stitching is!

 One of the finished pieces!

They were just amazing to see - and on a totally different level to this picture I stitched when I was a teenager that my daughter now has on her bedroom wall!

Have you ever embroidered a picture?
