Explaining the dedication of the team, Teker said:
"The patterns on the puşide were stylized from the border designs of the bath basin in the Niksar Grand Bath. The eight-person team completed it by working on 15 centimeters per day. It is entirely hand-embroidered using the Dival technique, a type of embroidery that looks different on the front and back. This cover is created by inserting each stitch one by one, making it highly valuable. It is truly a masterpiece that will find its rightful place."

"Our colleagues are very talented. But talent alone is not enough; dedication is also required. They devoted themselves to this work. They worked tirelessly, day and night, on weekends, even neglecting their household duties. They put in great effort to complete this puşide."
