Kutch work, Cable Stitch, Half Anklet Stitch: Saree Blouse

When my DD liked my kutch work saree blouse I thought to make one for her too. So here it is..

Stitches
Half Anklet for star shaped flowers..I call it half anklet because the stitch is only half part of anklet stitch(muvvala kuttu).. the stitch is variation of cretan stitch.
Kutch work
and the stitch in blue is cable stitch
I have added stick kundans in the centre of the flowers.

Threads used are anchor cotton floss. How is it!?

  2. HI,
    I have been trying to print your tutorial for the chemanthi but can not. It is easier to follow from a printed sheet than the computer. Also is there a kutch work tutorial. I enjoy your blog and am learning a lot. I am in the states. Thank you . Stephanie

  13. I always embroider on stitched blouse..but if the blouse is having lining cloth it is better to embroider first and then stitch the blouse to avoid creases
