Yeah... This time your judgment was off Amira. That just looks sleazy.
You did well, Pariya. Preparing for marriage really was a long and arduous battle for these women. Respect.
I think grandma sees some parts of herself in Pariya.

Ugh... All this pointless focus on embroidery... treating something so decorative and frivolous as essential is ridiculous. Bunch of deranged women. That pouch was completely functional before she put all the flowery horseshite all over it. If she doesn't like doing it, she shouldn't have to. Learning what is and isn't essential is also an important skill, and this is NOT essential.

Man @SotiCoto , you really need to learn how to enjoy shit. I imagine life is very boring the way you are. Also you need to understand that the depicted culture and your current culture are worlds apart. Yes they need to focus on their embroidery. It's basically a survival skill for them and the detail and focus on it goes to show further how important it was for them

Damn, I cried a river reading this chapter because I related so much to it as an artist. Sometimes it's really hard to keep motivated and do the very best for one artwork. And believing that you also can do a 'impossible' art is a real challenge...I love this mangá so much...its the beauty of a simple daily life...

I always love this chapter so. "Remind yourself as often as you need: Just who was it that made it, and made it well."

Such perfect advice. Such well described struggling, and the emotion of trying to do this hard work while feeling frustrated by it....
