I finished the second piece for the Lavender ladies embroidery of the century panel today. It represents the fleeing of the Dali Llama from Tibet to India, when the Chinese invaded in 1959. The silk was dyed in tea, quilted, embroidered,buttoned and beaded, then the back ground was seed stitched. It is about A4 in size and took two days of constant sewing to complete.Thankfully, I have now finished both pieces,ready to be displayed with the other members of the group, to see where they should sit on the panel.
