Experience Traditional Embroidery at Mrs. Eli\'s
Immerse yourself in the rich tradition of Gjirokastër\'s embroidery at Mrs. Eli\'s home! Join us for an authentic and hands-on experience in creating traditional costumes, where you\'ll learn the intricate techniques passed down through generations.
Mrs. Eli has a wealth of experience in modeling traditional Gjirokastër costumes, and as a child, she worked alongside her mother and grandmother, absorbing the original motifs of the city into her designs. In our 1.5-hour embroidery class, you\'ll delve into the artistry of needlework, focusing on techniques unique to the region.
During the session, you'll have the opportunity to embroider your favorite image: a flower, a fruit, or the iconic stone bird. These motifs, deeply rooted in Gjirokastër\'s heritage, will be transformed into beautiful pieces under Mrs. Eli's expert guidance.
Your embroidery work on fabric can be a dedication to someone dear, and the choice of colors can add a personal touch to your creation. Mrs. Eli will lead you step by step through the process, ensuring you leave with a piece of Gjirokastër's cultural legacy.
