Cross Stitch : Table Cloth

Though I am not comfortable with cross stitch finally able to finish one cross stitch. It took me a lot of time because it took more time to remove wrongly done  stitches than stitching..:). We call it matty work because the fabric is called matty (aida) cloth.
But I am happy  it came nice, and looking pleasant  and colour combination is also good. colours in the Pictures  are slightly  different from the real colours. How do you like it!!??

Cross Stitch: Saree Blouse

I did this cross stitch on a stitched saree blouse using aida cloth to match with the saree..
I got the pattern for this maple leaf from sarajessica..

Kasuthi and cross stitch: Kurthi

To match with my 23 years old cotton dupatta I have selected a matching cotton material and selected design similar to the prints on it. It takes long time to complete this simple project. Stitches are  easy but needs lot of concentration. so much  bored I was with it so that I couldn't  complete the motifs and neck line on this kurthi.
Stitches used are kasuthi, cross stitch, stem stitch, half anklet stitch and hungarian braided chain stitch. Threads used are anchor cotton thread.
