Dear Indira, how lovely. I have always found embroidering to be an extremely serene actvity. Once the decisions on design and colours are taken, the stitching itself filled me with such quietness. I used to do it a lot when I was growing up, but now, not really! Seeing your post brought back those lovely memories!

Hi Indira,

It is good to be back on your website! Your hand embroidery pillows are just superb. It would be wonderful if you also post some instructions on how you did them.

Thanks,
–Manasa (once I posted Mango Shrikhand for JFI-Mango event)

Beautiful Indira! I agree hobbies are very therapeutic indeed. Inspired by Nupur’s work, I started crocheting last year, only wish I had more time to do it.
