5. Our Project Sound Bite
We discovered some new findings when we look back the research after it was finished. We realized that not only did we gain more knowledge on the production of comforters but we also gained more common knowledge on comforters such as the maintenance. Meanwhile we admire the efforts exerted by owner Zhang and master Hsu in order to pass down this traditional technique. Now when we use comforters, we have more gratitude and different sentiment towards comforters.
