A blouse.!

The blue colored blouse that I am wearing in the picture, is stitched out of one such piece of fabric, picked up by my daughter!

A very traditional fabric used, for blouses, particularly in the rural areas, where I live in India॥Maharashtra( the state where Mumbaee...Bombay..is)।
The nose ornament,that I am wearing is also very traditional in this region, except, for the size thats seen in the .....what I am wearing is smaller than the traditionally worn piece of jewelery !

More linen & bedcovers in cotton & silk

Hi all!
I'm uploading images on my mother's behalf. She's currently undergoing treatment & rehab for her chronic migraine.

Below are images of linen projects that were completed by her over the past 8-10 years.
The rooster curtain & some of the vibrant bed linen below are by far my favorites.

Enjoy!
