I am out to have my peacock fix. I still have one more pattern to make. That I'll mostly make.
Also, I am looking for a pattern of a peacock with open feathers... can anyone help???

Few things I have made lately.

Okay, finally I get around taking pictures of the stuff I have been making. Here are a few of them:
This took me around 2 years to finish, not because it was that complicated, but because I just am too louse to finish what I start.... I AM NOT sure if I like it, or where I'll use it, but well, it is finally finished!!!









This little lady was finished in two days flat!! And I liked her a lot, and incredibly, I even had some use for her, and put her on a TV cover, but when the cover was relegated to some forgotten corner, I took her out so that I can use her somewhere. She's still looking for some appropriate place for herself... Any ideas?












Here are a few shadow work stuff I did. I haven't completely finished the entire piece yet, but I like the parts of it that are finished! :)














They are not perfect I know, but I kind of like them...

Look who's back!

It meee!!!
Well, MIL is now fine...
And no pictures... sorry... my camera died...
Anyway, here's what I'll be trying next::
A Salwar Suit!!
I have made a plenty but most are actually pretty crude, but my mom likes them, so she ends up with most of them, (okay I lied, actually she has all of them!).
I am currently working on a Lakhnavi kurta, which I have unpicked 15 times, after sewing it for 14!!I hope this time I'll get it right.
Somtimes I think a structured class would have been a better idea to learn sewing rather than unpicking old suit and figuring out how they were originally sewed.... I'll never know...

First try with GIMP

I am learning GIMP these days!! And my first project, my blog header! It is a work in progress, and my very first try so be gentle.
The header will change a little more, as and when I learn more about how to work with GIMP!! Yay!!
