She was part of a team of specialist embroiderers who worked on the intricate lacework on Kate Middleton's wedding dress. Jenny Adin Christie's talents have attracted the attention of Sir Paul McCartney and the Queen Mother, her needle work has taken her to Australia, France and now she's in New Zealand as part of the 30th anniversary of the Wanaka Embroidery School.
