SAL

I got a chance to participate SAL (stitch along )with Anita.. chikenkari embroidery sal..this is an indian embroidery ..I love chickenkari embroidery dresses..like kurthi sarees..etc.....while I was searching indian embroidery work, happened to see her blog. http://artisticfingers.blogspot.com/ .she is a very good teacher ,Her tutorial are well explained..

first lesson is double back stitch..These  teardrop shapes are stitched in double back stitch..I used malmal cloth and a peach colour anchor embroidery thread..pic is not much clear..And back side is purely heringbone stitch..it will create front side a shadow work effect..

Anitha waiting for ur opinion..is it ok..?

Last week  I was  linking  up with Tamis blog..I have a lot of unfinished projects..this wool eater pattern I started 2 weeks ago.when I saw this pattern in pinterest   . I really like the pattern and started doing it.I used yarn from my stash..without thinking of colour combination ,The name is apt for this pattern..wool eater...very easy to follow instruction..but it takes lot of yarn and my yellow colour  finished ..so I  was postponding this project.. I managed it with slightly pale yellow yarn.. if I continue the steps  what colour u prefer ..?
