Spring cleaning in Moldova involves taking a lot of things out of the house to air them out and to allow easy access to all the corners in all the rooms.

We saw a lot of them there. And a lot of very colourful hand made carpets.

They were very common here, in Russia, in a countryside, at my grandma's time. She had a lot of them. And i used to embroyder them when being a kid :) Then they became obsolete :) And now they are becoming popular again, together with other handmade :)))

We liked them a lot. We bought some and brought them back to London with us.

On Ukraine many similar + very beautiful works

It was not easy to buy them though. Everything there is made in China or Turkey these days it seems. Everything local seemed to be dying, people seemed to be leaving the country too.

Its a true. Hand-made - expensive labor. Real artists have very not much. Only in distant villages and exhibitions.
