With high quality Shu Embroidery pieces more and more in demand, Meng has had to grow her business along the way, to satisfy the increasing need of this time-consuming craft.
“The orders for our high-end works will take us years to get through, so we’ve recruited some skilled people today. We have to foster more talent in our workshops to cater to the demand,” Meng said.
Meng’s five training bases in Chengdu now turn over an annual profit of 3 million yuan. Their works take on not only traditional themes such as birds, flowers and animals, but also ancient paintings or modern oil paintings. Last year, Meng’s work "Autumn Plateau" was hung in a hall at "the Great Hall of the People" in Beijing. To Meng, this honor is testimony that Shu Embroidery is appreciated by the people and is still very much alive and kicking.
