My photoless project du jour is for an upcoming SCA event, and is allowing me to do some pattern testing. I did my Mughal angharka in four different ways for myself (each time learning valuable info), but then found a … Continue reading

This post, and the choli pattern I’ve got now. I spent some time at Leah’s house, wherein we could not find her zari supplies (oh, there’s still much time for this later, never fear) but ended up drafting a rather … Continue reading
