In a embroidery workshop in Shibing County, Long Luying and her colleagues use needles as pens and thread as ink to embroider flowers, birds, fish, butterflies and other elements, creating Miao embroidery works with vivid patterns.
Long Luying is a provincial-level inheritor of Miao embroidery. She learned Miao embroidery from her mother at an early age. In 2006, Long Luying left her job at an embroidery workshop in Shenzhen and returned to her hometown to start her own business on hand-made Miao embroidery in Shibing County of Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture.
Over the past 17 years, Long Luying has provided free embroidery skills training to local women, creating job opportunities for more than 1,000 rural women in the village. (Xinhua/Yang Wenbin)
