Batik Patch

This is actually Miao baby carrier panel. Like the ancient Chinese, minority tribes also worship birds. The bird was seen as a shaman, sometimes, a messenger. This baby carrier uses only the hand weaving technique. Hidden among the extremely refined and sophisticated geometric patterns, one can identify countless white cranes. The design and shape of this carrier also makes it a unique piece. It's used to wrap around the baby several times to insure.
