Maria Chumarna. Kod ukrajins'koji vyshyvky. (The Code of the Ukrainian Embroidery)
"Feeling the live breathing of the space mystery encoded in the ancient culture of our ancestors, realizing the necessity of entering live sources of powerful rejuvenation of our modern life anew by touching the great Knowledge – this is the objective of the author of this unique research. The book offers samples of embroidery from all over Ukraine. It is demonstrated how far motives of Trypillya people, Egyptians, Sumerians, Incans, other ancient people were consonant with motives of modern Ukrainians. Decorative patterns replicated since the times of Trypillya and till nowadays, history and symbolism – all of this has been collected in one book by Maria Chumarna. This book is an attempt to reveal the sense of the encoded record of Ukraine imprinted on shirts and towels, trunks and altars. The same record exists in our genes and consciousness.

The publication is intended for all those who love Ukraine and the beauty of its hand-made masterpieces. The book contains very rich illustrative material – charts, photos, pictures."

Дуже пізнавальний матеріал. Глобалізація світу стирає національні звичаї, традиції, пам'ять. І це занурення в історичне минуле, генетичну пам'ять, давнє життя пра-українців не може залишити байдужим. Тепер маю змогу бачити у простих та звичайних речах "космос", символізм світобудови, руку Творця. Хто забуває минуле - не має майбутнього. Наші народні рукотворні обереги і є тим зв'язком поколінь, неперервною ниткою життя нації. Здоров'я та наснаги авторці - Марії Чумарній!

Я купив декілька книжок Марії Чумарної і від прочитання їх відчуваю насолоду, може й тому що розділяю думки пані Марії, але ще і тому, що вона своїми думками пробуджує те, що спить в багатьох людях, краще, духовне, якусь несподівану суть життя. Книжки пані Марії для тих, хто хоче збагатити свою душу, бо ж вона безсмертна, її потрібно любити і холити. Я звичайний пенсіонер і Код української вишивки для мене дорого коштує, але гарні речі - дорогі речі. Я харків'янин, все життя трекал по-московськи, а зараз я щасливий, що читаю книжки, написані чудовою українською мовою. Я пишаюсь тим, що в нашій країні є такі розумні, талановиті, чарівні жінки, як пані Марія Чумарна. Українські жінки - незрівнянні, кращі у світі, я це знаю, так що чекаю на нову книжку пані Марії.
