Pattu pavadai 2

-

Pattu pavadai.. A traditional dress for the young girls down in South India...
It can be bought ready made or stitched according to choice. The grandness of the dress depends on the occasion.
I stitched this for my daughter.. who loved it. The long skirt.. flares out as she twirls around..

I stitched the skirt with a attached bib to act as a slip and the top is stitched with puff sleeves and a low back with ties..

Loved the color and the gold work adds grandness..

I did this for my Sil..4 yrs back :) When i was going through my album i found this and decided to put it up. Both of us had gone out shopping and had bought this sheet but we could not find a matching pillow cover. So, we went and bought a plain cover and i traced the picture from the sheet and did the embroidery..the colours dont match much since at that time i did not get the same colour thread and they were in a hurry they had to travel back home the next day. but all in all.. it came out well. :)

I know its been sometime now since I have written here, been kind of busy with things at home, but today I had some time and was browsing when I saw this blog http://deepashome.blogspot.com/ I really loved to see her work. They are so beautiful. I was going through her tutorial and decided to give it a try. I tried out the Chemanthy work and did it with ordinary cotton thread and hope it has come out right. It was fun trying out somethign new. Thank you Deepa :) http://deepashome.blogspot.com/2008/07/chemanthy-work-indian-embroidery-method.html
