Elderly craftswomen from China create double-sided embroidery. Two works of art and not a single seam in sight!
These grandmothers can compete with David Copperfield himself - only instead of cards they have needles and instead of a cloak - silk. Their secret weapon is the ancient technique of double-sided embroidery Suzhou, where two completely different patterns are obtained on one canvas without a single visible seam. And no, it is not magic (although it is very similar), but years of painstaking work and incredible skill.
These grandmothers are real ninjas of the art of embroidery. While most people get tangled up in two threads, they create two-layer masterpieces, making the needle dance between the sides of the fabric.
