As the fifth generation of descendants, Xia Liyun has been a teacher from her mother since childhood. She began to learn embroidery at the age of ten, and mastered most of the techniques of Manchu embroidery at the age of fifteen or sixteen. In 1998, Xia Liyun spent three years in the south to study famous Chinese embroidery such as Su, Hunan, Sichuan and Guangdong. In 2003, she founded her own Manchu Embroidery Co., Ltd.

Inheritance significance
Jinzhou Manchu folk embroidery is a straightforward primitive art, which retains the original thinking structure and original shape of the Manchu people. It is one of the most basic carriers of Manchu handicraft mother art in Northeast China. It is rich in content, imagination, profound in meaning, novel in technique and changeable in form. It is a favorable material evidence for the study and excavation of Manchu history, culture and historical aesthetics. It deserves our attention and protection.
With the gradual extinction of Shaman culture and the passing away of the old generation of embroidery artists, the unique charm of Manchu folk embroidery is fading away. In addition, the vigorous development of modern machine embroidery has caused great impact on Manchu folk embroidery. Manchu folk embroidery has a difficult situation of lack of successors. It is gratifying that the endangered Manchu folk embroidery has been timely and effective protection in Jinzhou. Jinzhou actively supports Manchu folk embroidery groups, extensively carries out technology dissemination in communities, rural areas and schools, employs old artists to lecture and teach embroidery technology. At the same time, we will go deep into the folk to collect information and participate in all kinds of embroidery fairs. Relevant departments have also formulated a five-year protection plan, hoping to make this ancient folk art flourish again.
