more The presented apron was worn with festive attire and put on over a colourful skirt by both ladies and married women in the Podgórze region. It is sewn by hand from factory fabric, white linen, and embroidered by hand.
At the bottom of the apron there is rich embroidery made of white cotton thread, flat stitch, satin and chain stitch. The holes are embroidered with thickened rims. The edges are double-scalloped. The strap is tied with strings.
Women usually embroidered this kind of decorative items alone, but there were also rural embroiderers who were employed professionally. The described apron was embroidered by the mother of the last owner – Katarzyna Gruca – before World War I and was made in Gródek near Grybów.
