Chikankari paisley

I'm back with yet another whitework/chikankari project.                                 

This paisley pattern is stitched on very fine muslin using 1 and 2 plies of embroidery floss.
My plan is to appliqué this onto a saree pouch.

Happy stitching!

Hi...This chikankari motif is beautiful..The jali work is so fine!!!
I would like to know if the jali work involves herringbone stitch or just back stitch~

@Unknown - Thanks. I stitched this a long time back so don't which jaali stitch I'd used.I'll check my notes and update.
