Tatting work on a T-shirt

Hi Friends,

I had done some tatting work on my friends T-shirt  around 4 to 5 years back. I got those photos while browsing through my picture files. Just thought of sharing with you.

Embroidery Class

Hi Friends,
It has been long since I had posted on my blog.  Though I was busy with something or the other, I had done a little bit of  Embroidery. I will share them in the later posts.
Now it is the summer holidays for the kids. I didn't go to India this time. So I planned for the Embroidery class. The plan is a very simple design with chain stitch, stem stitch, satin stitch, hemming and tacking.  And it worked out well.

Here are the pictures of the budding embroiderers.

There are some more to come. The age group of the children are 6 to 9 yrs. And for their age the work that they have done is awesome.  I have found that boys are equally interested.  All of us really enjoyed the  lessons.  

Thank you for visiting my blog.

Cheers

Savitha.

Happy New Year

Hi Friends
WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Completed Lotus- TAST Week 14 Stem stitch

Hi Friends,
Here is the picture of the completed  Lotus. This Lotus I started for the TAST week 14 (stem Stitch). it took so long for me to complete. Its better to be late than never.
This Lotus and the Leaves are stitched only using the stem stitch.  First I stitched with  only pink colour for the flower.It was so plain.  So I added the purple outline, now it looks a little better.

Thanks for visiting my blog.

Cheers

Savitha.
