Embroidery in Kutch: Village -4
In the area people migrated from the Thar Parkar region of Sindh, and brought
with them the long held traditions. The basic stitch for suf
embroidery is the triangle. The artisans perfect that simple form, and
from it create the infinite intricate patters. Embroidery is done on the
wrong side of the cloth.
