One Finished Project And Five Unfinished Projects




Hi friends! Sorry for being missing in action over the past three months—I was away on a long vacation. Since I was traveling most of the time, I couldn’t work on any embroidery or sewing projects, nor did I get the chance to update my blog or visit yours.

Once I returned, I decided to take stock of my unfinished projects before starting anything new. To my surprise, there were six in total! I made a promise to myself to finish them all before beginning a fresh project. So far, I’ve managed to complete one out of the six.


Finished Project:

Cushion cover with embroidered flowers

Unfinished Projects:

1. Embroidered Doily:

2. Kameez neck design:


3. Pillow cover with embroidered roses:


4. Embroidery on a silk sari:


5. Embroidery on a crape sari:


All the unfinished projects except the last one involve long and short embroidery. This is one of the reasons for the delay. Also, I could not spend more time on embroidering for the past one year due to various reasons. Now, as I have got more time to spend on embroidery and sewing, I have determined to complete these projects that I have been keeping on hold for a long time. I will update you on the progress of these projects.

Now, I am starting to visit all your blogs. Have a lovely Monday!

Welcome back! All your stitching projects are gorgeous. I just took a class this past weekend on learning long/short embroidery. It's beautiful work and I hope I get the hang of it as I struggle with my stitches being at first too close together and then too far apart. Need lots of practice :)
