The embroidery contains a plethora of designs, colours and subject matters, including 3D insects, flowers, people's names, etc. Peple have always been free to work whatever motif they wanted. By 2017 it was displayed at various venues in the UK, where it could also still be embellished and added to. The Guild has since set up a comparable project, namely the World's Longest Embroidery for Schools. Invitations were sent to schools in Australia, Canada, the UK and the USA.
