    Hi Gayathri,

    Matty cloth is cross stitch cloth also called AIDA matty in the US and kasuthi is practiced on that initially

    Hi Sangeeta,

    Your work is very neat and you have grasped the basics very well. But my suggestion is that while the orange is fine you could have used ecru/ cream or white instead of the dark blue. That would have high lighted the intricate design.

    Hi All,

    I lost my FIL this morning and he passed away just as soon as he wished me for my B'day. So I might not log in for the next few days
