Frock- Recycled fabric put to use

Image
My friend had a piece of shawl fabric from an old salwar that she was not using. She wanted to learn to stitch a skirt for her child with it. It was simple. We started out with a skirt and made a gathered skirt.;) But since we had excess fabric I made an extra dress. :)

My next step

Finally I settled for a simple design and started on it. But I don't get much time to sit with it. It's a very slow progress but what I have done so far is this... tatda..

FEATHER stitch in the making

Image
I started this project with the hope of finishing it soon..I had it all planned out.and it was coming out just fine until this point..after finishing so much i'm stuck now at deciding what design to do in between the lines, should i use multi colour thread and with what stitch. I had decided on circular design with the chemanthy stitch but at this point i am doubtful about how good it would be.. any suggestions???
