土家族背带 The Tujia Baby Carrying Belt

平绣 Flat stitch，传统花鸟图案 Traditional flower and bird patterns

（简）背带整体为鲜红色，以绿色边框点缀刺绣部分，有吉祥福气之寓意。此背带运用了平绣。背带中间部分的传统花鸟图案亦十分精美，花儿婀娜多姿，小鸟栩栩如生，可见刺绣技艺之高超。由于土家族长期受汉族文化的影响，刺绣风格偏汉族文化。背带是少数民族背小孩的工具，常用蜡染，织锦，刺绣工艺来制作。背带的制作相当耗时耗工，寄托了无限的母爱和美好祝愿。

(ENG) Baby carrying belt: bright red with green embroidered borders. The colour red signifies auspiciousness. Flat stitch is used. The centre is decorated with intricate traditional flower and realistic bird patterns. As the Tujia culture has long been influenced by Han culture, the embroidery style of this belt has similarities with Han clothing culture. Baby carrying belts are used by ethnic minorities to swaddle their babies and are a crucial part of their clothing culture. Creating each baby carrying belt is time-consuming and laborious, and women make these exquisite carrying belts as a direct demonstration of motherly love.
