I like working Indian ethnic embroidery on traditional Indian designs. The motifs are ideal for working zardosi work, chikan work, kantha work, Kashmiri work. I worked zardosi embroidery on this tunic. The pattern-
cream violet crepe zardosi tunic-pattern
Cotton skeins were used to work the embroidery. Stitches worked were, stem, chain and french knots.

After attaching the zardosi beads and stones-

Yoke detail on tunic-

I wear a salwar on deep violet [same as the yoke fabric] with this tunic. A synthetic crepe dupatta in violet completes the outfit.
The fabric and print did not require any embroidery. when I was in a mood for some zardosi work, this tunic got hit!
