doily

I had designed and stitched a small hardanger doily. This little doily is a class project and measures about 10.5'' x 10.5''

The next workshop is on May 9^th at Aesthetic threads, Thiruvanmiyur, Chennai.

Happy Stitching!

doily 'Anamika'

I'd started this doily almost a year back I think.                         

I was making slow but steady progress since then and finally finished it last week..

Happy stitching!

Anamika & a new scarf...

It's summer here so we don't need scarves but I've gone crazy and started knitting a scarf..                   

Also I've completed the middle part of the hardanger doily Anamika..                   

Have a great weekend!

Anamika

I've gone crazy and added one more project to my long WIP list..

It's a hardanger doily.                   

I've completed the outer square and part of the middle section so far.                   

I'm going to call this doily as 'Anamika' which means 'without a name'.

Happy stitching!

Doily-Aura

I’d like to show y’all this small doily-Aura

                                                      

It was quite a challenge because I had to develop a design to fit this size of the fabric and I think it’s turned out well…

Have a great weekend!

Happy stitching!

Embroidered box top

Hi

Hardanger embroidery is one of my favorite techniques. I’d like to have a hardanger WIP always. Indian embroidery is my comfort zone and to try different techniques like crewel, hardanger , whitework is a different experience which I enjoy .

Here is a small project which is no more a WIP, Yay!

                                          

I received this jewel box as a gift from my brother and the supplies from my motherJ.

It feels good when one WIP is crossed from the list even though it’s a small one, isn’t it?

Happy stitching!

Hardanger embroidery

Hi!

I've received few mails suggesting stitch-alongs.I honestly don't know how many of you will be interested to participate in an INDIAN EMBROIDERY SAL.If there are interested stitchers out there then I'd like to organize one.Let me know if you are interested.

I've finished the embroidery part in a new project - a small bag /pouch last week.
I've used a variegated stranded cotton thread.

                                                 

I didn't control the color placement in this project,on purpose. What do you all do - Do you always control the color placement or work the thread just as it comes off the skein ?

Happy stitching!
