On a sunny day, we walked into the world of Sichuan embroidery together to explore this ancient and magical art.
Follow us and walk into the signing studio, as if entering a space where time has stopped. The embroiderers sit in front of the embroidery frame, and the needles and threads in their hands dance lightly on the silk, like elves jumping.
Exquisite Sichuan embroidery works are hung on the wall. The delicate needlework and bright colors make people marvel. Looking closely, every stitch and every thread contains the deep affection and concentration of the embroiderer. A lifelike butterfly seems to be about to flap its wings and fly away at any time; a delicate flower exudes a charming fragrance.
Our Sichuan embroidery craft leader, Ms. Meng, showed me the needlework of Sichuan embroidery. She is skilled and the needlework seems to have life in her hands. From flat needle, rolling needle to mixed needle, each needlework has its unique use and effect. She patiently explained the history and cultural connotation of Sichuan embroidery, which made me understand that Sichuan embroidery is not only a skill, but also the crystallization of the wisdom and emotion of the people of Sichuan.
I stayed beside the embroidery frame for a long time and was deeply attracted by the charm of Sichuan embroidery. It is not only an art, but also a heritage, carrying thousands of years of culture and the dreams of countless embroiderers. In this fast-paced era, Sichuan embroidery still sticks to its purity and delicacy, writing a splendid chapter with needlepoint.
