Small embroidered sampler (referred to as a 'mini protest banner') made at a workshop led by Sarah Corbett, founder of the Craftivist Collective. The workshop, held at St Fagans: National History Museum in June 2012, was organised to coincide with Refugee Week and the *Refugee House* exhibition. Printed pink cotton, with an overall pattern of red polkadots. There are two metal eyelets (one in each top corner) to enable the 'banner' to be displayed in a public space. A piece of white block weave canvas has been applied onto the cotton. The canvas has been embroidered with two daisy motifs and a quotation by Robert G. Ingersoll: 'Give to every human being every right that you claim for yourself'. The Craftivist Collective label has been stitched over the canvas, bottom the right.
