EN: embroidery
Your lola's favorite hobby. It's the art of making flowers and names appear on handkerchiefs and pillowcases using a needle and thread. Today, it’s making a comeback as "aesthetic" patches on denim jackets. **Sulam** is basically drawing with thread.
From Malay sulam, meaning "embroidery".
The verb form is "magsulam" (to embroider) or "sulsihan" (to embroider on something). Not to be confused with "ulam" (viand).
