Atlast I got the tunic stitched. I also took a few photos of my previous work. Deepa from the stitchinfingers group enquired about mirror work. I have been doing this for many years, maybe I should work on tutorial for mirror fixing, anyway if she asks me again I’ll eloborate on it.Since she is good at the chemanthi st,I think she can easily catch up.
I am still floundering how to add link to my post.Perseverence is the key here.

I worked the kutchwork on a same colour cloth and attached it to the tunic. I can’t wear it till I buy the salwar

I think I need that method to be elaborated a little. Could you?
There are enough tutorials in the net for other methods of shisha.

Hi, I have already gone through the site u hv referred.yours have no comparison with other’s work. your designs are challenging ones. I like it. Every tutorial give the same old single diamond no one has gone beyond that level.

I too started with the diamond. Later ,I started designing my own patterns. The journey for each pattern was different.Now that I have understood what you want, I’ll work on the tutorial, and post it.I’ll also post some patterns periodically, with the journey
