| Hi Raji, Excellent work. I am wondering how you trace the patterns in the whole saree? Do u do with tracing paper and carbob paper(usual way) or any shop near by u does the pattern tracing for you? Which is the best place to buy plain tusser material? I would like to do some work too. Can we also do in plain chiffon sarees? But tracing is the biggest problem.. Do you do maggam embroidery too? I have been dying to learn that? Anyone could teach it? Last edited by Lilly07; 16th April 2008 at 11:44 PM. Reason: editing |

| Kanta work looks beautiful and simple. Is it just stiching running stich along the design or we have to do something else? I want to try the same so please advise |

| hi all, i trace designs in the usual way.[using carbon]. 4 tusser silk , as this material is transparent 2 an extent.v can keep the design under the sari n draw. but 4 gorgette type it is more difficult as v have 2 use carbon. my daughter ammu helps me in tracing. v can get good tusser silk material at JAYALAKSHMY SILKS, ERNAKULAM. kantha work is just RUNNING stitch, which v shud do carefuly 2 get perfection. 2 work the complete sari ,i took abt 2 months [not ful time work]. regards raji.
