Peacock Design

For a change I am not doing this on a dress instead I am going to frame it.I am going to use sequins and beads for the feather section and selected the thread and the sequins in the same shade.

Embroidery Stand

This stand comes handy when you need to use both hands when the frame is bigger.As I wanted to fit the design in one frame I used a bigger hoop and  it was very difficult to hold it and this one came very handy.My daughter bought this for me and it is really convenient.I just wanted to share this with you all.

Frock

I stitched this for my grand daughter.I love adding satin ribbon as it gives a nice feel for the dress.That was a bit I bought for a steal.Just Rs 50( a dollar).Bits are always cheap and I think for stitching a frock for the kids it makes sense too.

Short tops

I was thinking of doing some applique in this cloth,but was not sure about what design to choose.I went to buy some lace and saw this embroidered yoke there.So I bought that and attached it.The work is very neatly done and looked grand too.

Peacock!

I wanted to share this with you all for a long time now.There are lots of peacock here and this picture I took when they were sitting on the roof of my neighbor.We can see them roaming around here in plenty.They look so beautiful and it is a delight to watch them even though we see them almost daily.

Black tops

This was a long pending project and I finished just two weeks back and sent it to my daughter in law for her birthday as a surprise.So I could not post this in the blog.She was thrilled to receive it and I am really happy She got it in time.

Happy New Year !

It has been a long time since I posted something as I was busy stitching my blouses after coming back from the US.I have to tend the Garden as it was neglected for six long months.It was really back breaking.So I was not able to concentrate in any new project.I have started to do a Peacock for framing as my daughter as well as well as my daughter in law wanted a frmed picture of my embroidery work. I will post it once I make some progress.

         WISHING YOU ALL A WONDERFUL NEW YEAR AGAIN!
