A simple pattern...


Hi !
I've embroidered a simple pattern on a black cotton fabric, it’s for a blouse and I’m planning to sew it this week end hopefully.

                                        
I've used stranded cotton threads and a couple of glass beads.
Have a great day!
Happy stitching!

Small bag


Hi !
I was kind of busy with diwali celebrations for the past few days and now it’s over am back to stitching…
I’d like to show y’all a small bag which I’d made some time back for my mother.
                                    
                                       
The fabric is silk, the threads are stranded cotton, silk and metallic. Also I'd used mirrors, sequins and seed beads.
I’m busy with a goldwork project which I’ll be sharing with y’all soon, so watch this space. Some of the basic preparations are done but am afraid a couple of things might not work out, let’s see what happens when I reach there.
Happy stitching!

Experimenting again....


Hi !
It’s been a while since I posted something here, isn't it? I was little busy with few other things, sick again, had guests at home....
But am back here to share a painting attempt/experiment with y’all .

                                      
I tried to paint a snowy/smoky mountain….It’s a mixed medium painting and also I've tried a combination of techniques with knife, brushes, sculpting tools. There are definitely some errors, will try to correct and get this close to perfection soon… What do you think, do I deserve to be happy with this attempt or not?
As I said earlier I do like to paint but unfortunately my bronchitis doesn't allow me to do that often. Also there is no wall space J and I didn't want any more rolled up canvas… Now that I've started selling my paintings I have space for new ones and earned some money too J. Hope my selling spree continues so that I could afford to buy more painting supplies....

Have a great day!
Anita.
