Henry Fonda and embroidery
Historically, embroidery has been done primarily by women, but this has not prevented men from finding serenity when embroidering. Actor Henry Fonda revealed in an interview that his favorite hobby was embroidery. Between takes during filming, she would sit and embroider satin stitches to calm her mind. Another embroiderer was Gustav V, King of Sweden between 1907-1950 who relaxed embroidering flame stitches. The noble art of embroidery or "painting with thread", as it is also known, is something for everyone; all you need is a needle, thread, cloth, and a moment of peace. ".
