Embroidery Project Embroidery is what Kashmir is known for. HemAth purchased 2 embridary machines and hired a full-time teacher from Calcutta for 3 months duration. The ladies continue to practice the crafts.A group will be selected after an exam to start embroidery on merchandize. In addition, HemAth is exploring methods to bring back the hand embroidery that is rapidely vanishing as a specialty of Kashmiri crafts. |
