De Borduurschool is an initiative by Crafts Council Nederland. Through transfer of knowledge, presentations, research, and lectures, we are building an ecosystem for embroidery together. We pass on the stories, vital knowledge, and skills to younger generations. This is essential to preserve and future-proof the intangible heritage of embroidery techniques.
