We will prepare an exhibition of pillowcases for the event, which are stored in chests as valuable exhibits.“The bed with such embroidered whipped pillows stood in a prominent place in every house, was considered a bright decoration of the Tatar house. Only the most expensive guests were put to sleep on this bed. In the houses where there were marriageable girls, they were prepared for a dowry. The embroidered pillow showed the skill and skill of the woman. Now, unfortunately, pillow embroidery is a thing of the past. But looking at them, a completely different mood arises, the times of mothers and grandmothers are recalled and I already want, as in childhood, to put my head on such a pillow.”
