NRI embroiders unique piece to honour Queen Elizabeth II

London,July2,2012: To mark the diamond jubilee of the accession of Queen Elizabeth II to the throne of UK, Swadesh Bhatia, a former civil servant from Surbiton, has crafted her latest embroidery work featuring the ever-smiling face of the British monarch.Since the time Swadesh Bhatia moved from India to Surbiton, she has been a great fan of the monarch. Owing her skills to the Indian handicraft heritage, and with love and royalty in her heart for the British royal family, Mrs Bhatia has created several pieces of artwork to mark the royal occasions. One prime example was a design depicting Prince William, which was featured in Kingston Guardian on the grand occasion of his 16th birthday. Now that's called an achievement! Isn't it? Similarly, she also crafted an embroidery design to mark the sad demise of Princess Diana. According to the embroiderer, her latest work is her masterpiece and is probably her last design. She admits that she started working on the portrait of Queen Elizabeth way back in year 2000 but got diverted until the beginning of 2012. Her grandchildren motivated and encouraged her to complete the design before the jubilee celebration and it took about four months for completion. Undoubtedly, the artwork is stunning and most importantly, is a milestone of achievement. The embroiderer proves that it's never too late to fulfill your dreams; all you need is passion.
