In celebration of International Women's Day, Google has unveiled a new doodle that inspires women and honors their achievements. But instead of using animated characters, the tech giant opted to travel to 13 different cities across the globe and asked a diverse group of females to finish the sentence "One day, I will . . . " Some of them are prominent figures: Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, anthropologist Jane Goodall, and activist Muzoon Almellehan. But most are everyday girls and women with big dreams and aspirations.
Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!
