Hello all, 
Today I want to continue my article on Virumaa, by giving examples by parish. Here is Virumaa within Estonia. Virumaa is a cultural region, not an administrative one. 




And here is a closeup of Virumaa, showing the location of the Parishes. 


For more general explanations, see my previous article. Here I will simply give images of costumes and embroidery from each of the Parishes, proceeding East to West.
