Bouquet Ship
Japanese Embroidery Center
Stitched by chapter member Christene Thurston
This was the 2024 EGA National Seminar piece from the Japanese Embroidery Center. It was a lovely piece to introduce new stitchers to the delicate nature of Japanese embroidery. The design expresses humility. The simple flowers in the boat represent people who have gone on a trip and are returning home with humble gifts of wildflowers for those who await them on the shore (represented by more simple flowers).
