My Inspiration

         
                               It was during my class three, i was inspired by a bag used by my class teacher. It was made of wool. Still then I have seen bags made of nylon threads by my mom. For the first time I had a spark, and tried with the left over yarn of my grandma who knits sweater for us. I did that.......and it came out well. And to find the stitch used in that bag I asked her to teach me and she did. Finally i tried that and the stitch was wow.... Here is one recent pic of a purse using that stitch.
 
                               And soon i received attention for my work and i received an order of twenty small purse. And this is the point which made me to experiment new stitches. 
 

                                   It was during our wedding, my husband's friends came to India. And to give them a small memento we planned many things finally our(my sister and myself) idea was accepted by our parents. The idea is things made out of handwork, and yes we did them all. Here is a pic of our memento, with the above said stitch. The purse is known as potli.

My bag.....



                             My mom made a bag with two granny squares for me. The granny squares were the two sides of the bag and there were roses on each side. It was my lunchbox bag till I learn crochet.Finally a day came for learning crochet. It was during our summer vacation for class three, my mom taught us the art of crochet. I was able to make a bag with two colors...and it took nearly two months to complete. I was proud to take my lunch in the bag which I made. I felt hard to play with nylon threads and that made me to experiment the threads with which am playing now.
