Embroidery is a form of art by designing fabric with threads and other materials using one or more needles.  The Vietnamese people have a long tradition of fine arts passed on from generation to generation among the diverse ethic groups through out the country. Each group has its own culture and art and one such art is hand embroidery which is a traditional art that is still very popular today.

This elegant picture is a perfect example of such traditional art which was embroidered by hand displaying a basket of wild orchids.
