Only by art can we get outside ourselves, instead of seeing only one world, our own, we see it under multiple forms. Marcel Proust

Flower - the bloom or blossom of a plant. The flower is the part of a plant that produces seeds, which in time become other flowers. This is thanks to a process called pollination that is carried out either by insects or the wind.

Embroider - the process of embellishing the surface of textiles with decorative stitching using colorful threads often made of silk or cotton.
