<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This type of embroidery is know locally as "writing stitch" The pattern is first drawn or "written" onto the cloth by the "writing woman" Most villages had one and a few exist today. Ilonka learnt to draw the writing in the 1960s from her then mother in law.</span></div>

Vintage grain sack fabric has become increasingly sought after in recent years and for good reason. These sacks were woven in communities in rural Europe. The sacks that I source and sell come from Hungary and surrounding countries. These fabrics were woven prior to world war 2. The fibres were grown and harvested then processed by peasant families. It was a lengthy process, after harvesting the hemp fibres were soaked in water ( a nearby river, lake or pond )for 6 weeks before the fibres were broken u and then spun before weaving.<br />
<br />
These homespun, home-woven fabrics are beautiful, sturdy and characterful. These fabrics most often have a red or blue stripe, less common are brown, black, purple and grey. The stripes indicated to the mill the owners of the grain bought for milling. Sometimes embroidered monograms were also added<br />
<br />
You can see how some of these fabrics have been used on my pinterest <a href="https://www.pinterest.co.uk/parnarama/vintage-linen-upholstery-and-soft-furnishings/" target="_blank">here</a><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
There is a strong tradition of embroidery in Hungary and Transylvania. This huge samlper was made by and given to me by <a href="http://www.filetoth.com/eng/" target="_blank">Eniko</a> who is a master craftswoman. It show 24 examples of embroidery, from a particular area of Hungary and Transylvania. The combination of stitches, colours and patterns are unique to these areas.<br />

<span style="background-color: #444444; color: white;"><a href="http://www.parna.co.uk/vintage-linen-grain-sacks-111-c.asp" target="_blank"><span style="color: white;">Vintage linen grain sack</span></a>s vary in weight, texture and weave, every piece is slightly different .</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #444444; color: white;"><br /><span style="font-family: tahoma, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.3999996185303px;">Most of our grain sacks date from before 1939, most are significantly older. Our grain sacks were woven in areas of Eastern Europe with a strong peasant culture. Families would grow their own hemp and or linen, harvest it, prepare for spinning and then weave. Hemp and linen was used to make clothes as well as household textiles and sacks and cart covers for use on the small holdings. Stripes and or monograms would indicate to the village mill whose grain was being milled. The most common coloured stripes are red or blue. We source from a small number of villages in transylvania where toffee coloured stripes were woven form thread dyed using walnut kernels. Hering bone weaves are more ommon in Romaina, sometimes thes fabrics are dark and very heavy and generally not as attractive as the fabrics thtat were made in hungary, the Ukraine and some of the Transylvanian villages.</span></span><br />

Beautiful detail in these antique blouse from one of the Kalotaszeg villages in Transylvania. Romania. Fine cotton, beautifully smocked/pleated and embroidered over the pleats. One supplier tells me that they used to place still hot freshly baked bread over the freshly pleated garments to keep the pleats in place. A load of bread instead of an iron! </div>

<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maramure%C8%99" target="_blank">Maramures </a> is an area in North East Romania, a valley surrounded by mountains it isnt easily accessible and has maintained traditions which have long since been lost in other areas.<br />
<br />
Textiles are characterised by large bright woven patterns.<br />
<br />
The area is famous for its wooden churches, many adorned with textiles, inside and out.<br />
<br />
Here are some images taken in the region. With special thanks to <a href="http://www.anca.intur.ro/" target="_blank">Pensiune Anca</a> where some of these images were taken (and where we had the most wonderful locally produced food) and <a href="http://www.villagehotelmaramures.com/" target="_blank">The Village Hotel, Bre</a>b where we stayed in the most beautifully renovated house<br />

Lovely old cross stitch embroidered mangle board holder . This piece is from the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transylvania" target="_blank">Kalotaszeg</a> region of Transylvania. Faded red cross stitch on hemp, this piece dates from the 19th century. In the days before irons and metal mangles wooden mangle boards were used to flatten linen. These wooden mangles were usually handcarved by young men, sometimes as gifts for their bride to be, they often had intricate carved designs and have become collectors items in their own right. There is more information on the history of the mangle board <a href="http://www.oldandinteresting.com/mangle-boards.aspx" target="_blank">here</a></div>

<br />
<br />
Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg is an area situated in the North East of Hungary bordering Romania and The Ukraine. This area has been well known for cross stitch embroidery for well over 100 years. A whole cottage industry grew up around producing embroidered items for home and abroad, particularly to Germany.<br />
<br />
Designs were originally stitched in red with a little black. With growing export to Germany they started to embroider in blues. The most famous patterns were the cockscomb, also known as the wolves pawprint.<br />
<br />

They embroidered peacocks to symbolise beauty and pigeons or doves to symbolise happiness.<br />
<br />

<br />
People knew these patterns by heart. If the pattern was to be embroidered by another family the pattern would be transferred to something like trracing paper or greaseproof paper. They embroidered with the help of a small mirror. Often the woman of the family would start a piece and embroider one stem of each cross stitch. Each family made 2 or 3 patterns. The children would come home from school and the husband from working and they would embroider the cross to the stems already embroidered by the woman of the house. They embroidered on cloth that they wove themselves.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-stitch">Counted cross stitch</a> require that for each stitch the number of threads being embroidered over are counted.These days they embroider on a cloth with a slightly more open weave, this way the threads are easier to see. It is said that in the old days the cloth woven in this area was some of the most even and skillfully woven in the land. The even weave of the cloth was important whe used as a base for counted cross stitch.<br />
<br />
This area of Hungary is quite distinctive with some beautifully kept small villages. The embroidery heritage is quite clear when you visit the villages in this area, one can still see women sitting outside houses chatting and embroidering. Churches are decorated with embroidery.<br />

A few summers ago I visited <a href="http://www.1hungary.com/info/beregdaroc/">Beregdaroc</a>, <a href="http://www.1hungary.com/info/takos/">Takos</a>, <a href="http://www.1hungary.com/info/csaroda/">Csaroda</a>, with a friend, there is a piece on her blog <a href="http://stolenchild66.wordpress.com/2009/08/10/hungarian-road-trip-3-nyiregyhaza-to-hajduszoboszlo/">here</a><br />
<br />
Thank you to<a href="http://www.filetoth.com/eng/"> Eniko </a> for educating me on the history of Hungarian textile craft. Her knowledge on the subject really is amazing.<br />
