TAST-2019

Hello Friends!

Hope you are all doing well. 

After Sankranti, I wanted to take a small break. But it got extended. So I am back now. Actually, on the academics side me and my students are in the last leg of learning for the year. So we are all concentrating on finishing of the portions and start our revisions. Thank fully I am finished up with the teaching portion though a bit later than what I actually planned at. But no problem. Now we are into our first round of revision. 

Well, added to all that hectic schedules, we have a severe cold wave here. With continuous rains on the top of that, I have had some health issues. I need to strictly safe guard myself against the cold. So I am spending most of my time recovering my health.

Amidst all this, I decided to join the TAST 2019 challenge. Well the link is here:



TAST  is a challenge for embroidery, on PINTANGLE  run by Sharon Bogon a very talented  and accomplished artist in embroidery. I love her work and dedication to hand embroidery and quilting.

Actually I am a bit late in posting it here. Already four weeks have gone by. Please do visit the site and read the FAQs. 

Do participate and leave me a line so that I can visit your blog/site. 

There is lot to learn from this challenge. So much creativity and so many ideas. 

Even if you don't participate just go through the previous works of the participants from the PINTANGLE site. There is much more on the site. Please take time to browse.

I have not yet started on the challenge. I did want to join from the first week. Any way one can jump in whenever you like and jump out. I have taken out all my embroidery materials out. It has been a long time. But I want to take it up again.

I will try to do as many as possible. 

My TAST Samplers from previous years are listed out in my PAGES separately so that it is easy for you. Please do go through them.





So do watch out this space. I will be posting my TAST samplers and much more.

Rangoli-379


Floral Chariot 

Hi Friends. Hope you are all busy celebrating the festival ith family and friends.

We have successfully completed our one month Dhanurmasam, offering our prayers and thanksgiving to the Lord Narayana, Sun God and Nature through our Rangolis.

Only two more days to go. Tomorrow we will draw a chariot rangoli coming into our homes, inviting the Lord  and day after tomorrow we will again draw a chariot rangoli going out as a farewell to the Lord.
 This is the dot scheme. Wheels and the flag are free hand drawings.

Hope you all enjoyed my Rangolis and tried them. By God's grace, this year I could post the rangolis for the entire month. 

Watch out for more posts on embroidery and crafts as this time, I am going to post many of my projects in various stages.

Wishing you all a very Happy Sankranti/Pongal/Lohri and Bihu once again. See you soon.
