SAL–with alterations….

Based on the comments from our Anita, I have made some alterations on my motif, as u  know I used different strands for different stitches, that z a mistake from my part, she specified about threads clearly in the needs list, I interpreted it wrongly.

here z my modified motif,

I was unaware that the chikan embroidery is doing with single color thread. I did different stitches with different colors just to distinguish the stitches in single glance ( in future ).

Those who are interested in chikan work, please enroll for the second phase SAL by sending an email to Anita.
