Framed Bunka!

Finally I got the 'Bunka Pansy'framed.Even though I completed this long back,I was very reluctant to leave the embroidery in the shop for framing.And finally I had to give in as I had no choice.And here it is..........

Flat stitch embroidered Tops

I had left a little bit of embroidery in this tops and today I completed that too.Here is the finished one.

Just like that............

It has been a really long time since I wrote or embroidered something.It is because I am busy stitching dresses for my daughter and blouses for me as I am leaving to the US to be with my children and grand children.I am looking forward to see all the little ones(3).I will be there till September.I hope I will do some embroidery there too.I am taking a big cross stitch kit and also planning to do some bunka embroidery.My son and daughter are not living very far away,so I will be spending time with both of them.
My stitching schedule will be over in another 10 days and I am doing some embroidery also in one short top,which I am not very happy about....I will post it once it is finished.And the most important thing  there is a sewing and quilting expo coming the weekend after our arrival.We all are planning to visit it and also planning to buy a good embroidery and sewing machine...(if it is really worth  while)...I am taking some embroidery threads from India as I want to make sure this thread suits the machine.Other wise the thread there is very expensive compared to the price here..So many aspects  has to be considered before buying a machine from the US....Ok all of you, see you soon with some nice work may be a cute frock for my granddaughter.

Belated NEW YEAR wishes

It has been a very very long time as I didn't do any stitching or embroidery,and this is very unusual of me to be like this.I was away for a week to Pune to my Niece house in the first week of Dec.We drove from Chennai to Pune with them and it was very memorable.After reaching home on 21 st we had to go to Chennai again as my husband's uncle passed away.No tickets were available and we  had to travel by bus.Returned the same day by bus again and it was really tedious.On reaching home I was not well and was out of sync for the whole of that week.I had viral infection and there goes all my strength.Only today I feel a little better and so thought of wishing you all for the new year.



WISHING ALL FELLOW BLOGGERS A COLOURFULLY EMBROIDERED YEAR OF FUN AND FULFILLMENT.MAY ALL OF US BE TIED DOWN WITH THREADS AND NEEDLES.

Short tops

This is a poly cotton material which I bought in Chennai. And the green zari is from a blouse bit which I have been preserving for quite sometime,as I was planning to use it in one of my projects.The zari was just enough for this :).How does this look?Waiting to hear your comments....

Short tops

I stitched two more short tops and for one I  attached loops to hold the string around the neck.Though I am not fully satisfied I proceeded the work as I was not in the mood to remove it.So....here it is.

Thread box

I got the box I was telling you yesterday.And this is a few mm taller than the spool,.. so it fits perfectly.

Do you like this idea?.............
