Rangoli-183

Lotuses N Fishes


Friends it has been a long time since I posted Rangolis. Here I am posting a square one 11X11. Very simple and very easy.

Hope you like it.

Watch out for Ugadi and SriRamaNavami specials. Since Chaitra Navaratris start now and worshiping Mata Rani i.e Goddess Durga or Laitha for these 9 days is very good, we can  draw these Lotus or other Rangolis with Sri Chakra.

Keep a watch.....

Whipped Wheel-1

TAST-2012-11th Week-Whipped Wheel

This weeks challenge announced by Sharon is Whipped Wheel. Here is the link you can visit her page:

Though I knew about the whipped and woven wheels I never had a chance to explore them much. I also don't have much practice. But they both are very easy to stitch. Here are my first attempts. I need lot of doodling before I can think of something creative.

Any way I am using various other stitches (as per TAST rules)in combination with this stitch. Let us see how far I am successful.

I started with straight stitch base. Then Fly stitch and two Straight  Stitches.

Here I completed the whipping and in the second one I added a chain circle.

 This was my second one. 

 This is Detached Chain.

 This one is again fly stitch.

 This one is done on a base of Detached Chain Stitch.

I ended up adding some beads. 

This one is Pistil Stitch.

This is the whipped wheel on a frame work pf pistil stitch.


Well with heavy power cuts, severe back pain, I am not able to do much. But I will try and keep you p[posted.

Running Stitch-3

TAST-2012-10th Week-Running Stitch

Here are some more of my explorations of the stitch:

I could have done better because I had so many ideas. But with constant power cuts and hot weather, it is difficult to find time for my hobbies. Any ways, I will work on them and post them later....I need to go along with all other TAST participants....
