Good news!

Hi !

I’m so happy to see all the chikan embroidery projects. You girls have made my day. Thank you all.

My mom’ (my embroidery teacher too) was so happy to see your work and wanted me to convey her wishes to you all.

There are 135 participants from 17 countries in our SAL.

I can hear you girls asking me, so what’s the good news? Since I am a new blogger I didn’t expect this response. I get request e-mails still and due to my lack of time I couldn’t accept.I don't want to disappoint so many friends and I thought I'll run this class again after April.When my mom’ asked me about this class today I told her about my problem and she has offered to help me with this for the next couple of weekends. She believes in sharing, she had learnt her craft that way because there was no formal craft classes in India 40-50 years back.

HURRAY!  Now my mom’ is on board and she will send the design and instructions to those who wants to join us. All you have to do is to send me an e-mail to register in this class, please do mention your country name in your e-mail. Please do not leave your e-mail id in the comments form.

Happy stitching!

Surprise....

It was in my mail box today! A gift and it is threads….I’m so excited.

Maureen from Australia has sent me a lovely card and threads. The variegated hand dyed thread is very pretty, isn’t it?

                             

THANK YOU SO MUCH MAUREEN.

I’ve never used hand dyed threads. I have a project in mind to use this variegated thread. I’d appreciate your suggestions….

Did you see the white thread? I’m going to try something with that thread and will show y’all soon.

Happy stitching

Anita.
