Rangoli-68

Here is one more of the Rangoli on Diyas. This is very simple.

The basic block is 5X5 dots. I have just added four blocks together. One can just use one block for a small design.

Embroidered Lace

In my last post I posted a pink n blue embroidered butee. The embroidered border or lace I am posting here was in fact chosen in combination with that butee for one my saris. I don't know how far it would look good on the sari for which I selected. Well I will be posting the pictures of the sari when completed. So you will have to tell me then.


Anyway, here it is:

This is 9 meters for sari and blouse. Below is a closer look at the design. This lace has been embroidered with silk and gold threads and mirrors. Here the mirror is not the glass type but plastic one. They are not really durable and one has to be careful while ironing as they may get burned.

Well what do you think?....


Keep a watch on my blog for some more of the beautiful laces and borders....

Embroidered Butees-3

Here I am again with some more butees. 

This is in the shape of the eye of Peacock feather. The colours you can see -pink, dark and peacock blue and green. This has been embroidered with silk threads and sequins with a mirror in the center. The patch has been backed by a stiff cloth.

All we need to do is either attach it to the sari, or blouse or dress with fabric glue or stitches or better both.

This is sold at per piece rate. Other colours are also available as also in other shapes.This as you can see is not heavily embroidered with gold or kundan work. Very light work and not too loud or heavy work.


I need to attach them to my sari. So I will post them as soon as I attach them. Keep a watch on my blog....
