The Greek philosopher Plutarch suggested that the human eye had the power of releasing invisible rays of energy that were in some cases potent enough to kill children or small animals. The evil eye is believed to be a curse that is given by a glare that has negative intensions. Any negative emotion can cause the evil eye curse, such as anger or even jealousy. It is believe that the curse itself causes bad things to happen to the person who has received the curse, such as headaches and even a string of bad luck. Wearing a special evil eye charm, also called a mati, is said to help prevent the curse from even happening. This set of work is inspired by the traditional hand embroidered works found in many Greek homes. The intricate patterns are usually sewn together to make tablecloths and decorative pieces displayed on flat surfaces. Many women would pass their time creating these masterpieces while sitting in the streets with friends and relatives talking about the happenings of the town. These naive hand-drawn versions of the traditional delicacies are used to decorate the rays of the evil eye bringing the crafty tradition and the local beliefs together.

If you're wondering what their clothes say I'll tell you. Papyrus's sweater says "Merry Crisis" Sans's sweater says "Be Merry! (Before it's too late)"
