Then they choose another color that they want and make more designs so there are no black spots left. Hmong women in Winona use a piece of material and pull the strings out of that material to make a piece of thread from seven or eight strings. We use the thread to decorate the cloth. We make triangles and diamonds by cross-stitching and add beads or sequins to make it shine. We use this to decorate cloth for the arm bands,the borders of the jacket, sashes, the panel for the front of the skirt, or for hats.
Hmong clothing is very cool, neat and beautiful.
We wear Hmong clothing to New Year's. The mothers have to sew new outfits. The men wear black pants. The women's clothing is a blouse tucked into a skirt. The striped Hmong's jacket is black and blue on the arms.
