I have a love/hate relationship with our state logo. Liberty and justice, a rising sun over the Hudson River, excelsior (Latin for “ever upward”) banner and how Liberty’s left foot treads on a crown (a symbol of freedom from the Kingdom of Great Britain). It’s so beautifully symbolic, but oh so difficult to digitize and embroider. It’s taken me a long time to get this down to just a few trims and color changes.
