On the 60th anniversary of the founding of Xiangxi Tujia and Miao autonomous prefecture in 2017, she led seven apprentices and spent nine months weaving a huge Tujia brocade featuring classic designs such as flowers, birds, heavenly beings, and auspicious symbols. The item is on display at the Xiangxi Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum.

Liu has also woven portraits of her customers into brocade items, which have sold well.

"We need to create high-quality, high-end products to preserve the good things in life. Only in this way can we enhance confidence in ethnic culture and achieve social and economic benefits," she said.
