Wang Xizhi.BA small accident led to profound changes in the life of Yang Li, an artisan（手艺人），who is from the Miao ethnic group. In 2011, Yang, from Tongrcn city in Guizhou province, created leaf-vein（脉络）embroidery（刺绣）three months after a leaf cut her hand.The work is a perfect combination of traditional embroidery patterns and the natural textures（纹理）of the leaves. 1（ has a unique aesthetic appeal of traditional embroidery matched with the characteristics of contemporary craftsmanship.As a native Miao woman with an inborn love of embroidery, Yang opened a folk culture products shop with her sister in 2011.

At first, the small shop did not earn significant income as there were many similar products on （he market. She gradually realized that it was important to establish her own brand and launch products with distinct features.That's when she was inspired by the cut.

Why has nobody created leaf-vein embroidery yet? ”Obviously, the reason behind this is that embroidering on leaves requires delicate skills that few possess. The biggest technical challenge Yang faced was improving the flexibility of the leaves and making them as soft as cloth. On Oct 16, a day she will never forget, Yang finally created a shiny, thin and unbreakable piece of leaf vein. Her idea of leaf-vein embroidery came to completion after hundreds of experiments.Two years later, Yang opened an embroidery processing factory and offered jobs to more than 5(X) laid-off female workers, rural women
