Ziaa

One of my design at Neiman Marcus YaY! :) and more love for paisleys ! Like it?!

Ziaa or Zia means 'design' in Baite language. Learnt this during my two moths of Meghalaya exploration. Biate is a Mizo tribe residing in Saipung area in the Jaintia Hills district of Meghalaya. 

Do you remember one more of my beaded runner here..

Moths??

Do you also have these uninvited guests on your walls as well? Tell me about them! I get super annoyed by these spirally flying moths and I feel that they will plunge into my ears or just dive in my freshly cooked curry. Aarrghh!! It is ok if they are stranded on the wall but it adds on to the task of sweeping the next morning. So this way or the other they do not stop their annoyance.

Well, the wall at my desk was their target last night. The wall had a scattered confetti look which I liked. But the liking was restricted for few minutes and I quickly took a picture of it.
What do you think? Does it make a different picture?

Illustrated me :)

I illustrated my name on the cover of my sketch book a few months back! The book is over now and I've started with another one. 

{Happy Weekend}

These are the beautiful Ajrakh fabrics under process of coloring. This photograph was taken a few weekends back at Kutch, a place I love!

Have a great weekend everyone! :)

"Swadeshi"

Sharing one of Gandhiji's thoughts on his 143rd birth anniversary. Jai ho!

{happy weekend}

A plan for past one point five years has materialized few weeks ago. Planted a tulsi sapling in my balcony, an added company to my croton, money plant and ganesh vel!

Indeed the tulsi fills the home with its holy-ness

Gulmohor

I would love to have my home surrounded with the flame trees - The Gulmohor; what lovely colors, full of energy!  

Working on some gulmohor inspiration today, the petals?

Tri-Color

Yesterday, I made tri-color salad for a healthy independence evening; using carrots, boiled potato and sprouted green chickpeas, with optimum salt-pepper-sugar and lime juice.

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY

My New Tactile Resume

I was bored with the boring paper resumes, so thought how about having a fabric resume? 

And yes, the thought materialised with printed poplins backed with leftover khadi, ikats, blockprints and some dobby weaves; to be rolled and tied like scrolls :)

PS: Resume on request :P
