March is just a few days away. The female month! And the great Bulgarian celebration - Baba Marta on the 1st of March. We had to do martenitzi and I am glad I got this opportunity. My grandmother is a master in making martenitzi and she`s been dealing with this craft every year since I was a little child. So it`s kind of a legacy - she used to teach me some techniques in the past, but now that I live far from her, I hadn`t made any martenitzi in a while. I felt good filling my mind with those pleasant memories while braiding the white and the red threads together today!
