The word \u003cem\u003eSuzani\u003c\/em\u003e roughly translates as 'needle' referencing the method of meticulous hand techniques of chain stitch or satin stitch, typically made with beautiful silk threads and painstakingly stitched onto cotton, silk or velvet base fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuzani blankets were commonly used as bridal dowries made by the bride to be, often with the assistance of female relatives. The blankets themselves had many uses ranging from decorative to practical. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTo ward off the 'Evil Eye', artisans traditionally incorporated just a single purposeful stitch or design element out of place to honour the knowing that Allah creates everything in total perfection. This was thought to draw away the attention of evil spirits and serve to protect both the tapestry and it's owners. Perhaps my favourite part is that each blanket is deeply imbued with symbolism that acts to protect and enrich it's owner.
