SUNDAY 12TH FEBRUARY ZHEN XIAN BAO


 ZHEN XIAN BAO or Chinese Embroidery Thread Wallets.
We had an extremely interesting and very different dayschool with one of our members, Jennifer Creek.
Jennifer had made us kits which must have taken her such a long time to mark and cut out so when our dayschool started we were able to begin putting the wallets together straight away.
 It was very pleasant to all be able to sit around one big table and work along together.  We worked at a nice steady pace and gradually put our wallets together.  Most unusual for us all to have finished on the day; there is normally plenty to finish off at home.  Jennifer also brought along a couple of books on Chinese local costumes and embroidery and one on wallets/books in all shapes and sizes.  A thoroughly enjoyable and successful day for everyone.
