Man sews to welcome Olympics

    Zhang Xuebin, a hotel employee in Luohu District, displays an embroidery of eight horses he sewed to welcome the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games in August. Zhang, a 26-year-old migrant from Guizhou Province, has been working on the embroidery in his spare time for the past five months. The eight horses shown in his embroidery, which will be finished in 10 days, symbolize the Olympic spirit — higher, faster, stronger. Gu Shaochuan
