doll dress and loom flowers

this doll dress is made by my daughter ,of course under my guidance.this light orange tablecloth is made by joining loom flowers.joining method i got from here   http://www.knitting-and.com/small-looms/picot-edge.htm

pink kurta completed

 at last the embroidery is complete.this long and short was very confusing .i stitched three flowers wrongly and have totake them out.in the first figure i have embroidered with deep purple in one layer only

 but for others in two layers in the broad part.

TAST 61, 62, 63, 64 and 65

You can get working method of the stitches on Pintangle.com

long and short 3

 another long and short flower.unlike previous one (the fig below) i have taken three shades. but it came out right after two failed attempts,i started with wrong choice of direction and all the hard work and time gone waste.in irritated mood i startted the second flower and lo it also went wrong  (the third and fourth fig) .maybe i have chosen a flower of some odd shape  o GOD i have to embroider 5 more flowers and d also take out the two wasted ones.

knitting and a lot else

knitting these days.bodice part is plain  and sleeves are made of crochet flowers.design is taken from Manorama.tried some beaded crochet .want to turn this into key chain .
