Is there a way that people from out of state can learn about the paj ntaub? It's always intriguing to learn, but I never had the chance to with my mom.

Hmong paj ntaub is so beautiful. Actually, hmong embroidery is not the Hmong alphabet. They are khawv koob (religious symbols of protection & magic). As a Shaman, we are taught the meaning of these symbols by our guides.
