Eastern Indian Embroidery
This was designed and hand stitched by Charity McAllister ( me )
It has also been featured on Mr. X-stitch.
It took me approximately six months to finish. It all started with a book from my local library.I was studying Eastern Indian Fiber Art and decided I needed to own one of these handmade masterpieces. Since I am a 'do-it-myself ' kind of gal, I gathered all the supplies I thought I would need and began my journey into the Eastern Indian embroidery
experience.
All the pictures on this piece are hand drawn and open to interpretation.

These are beautiful. I have a very unique giveaway from a India based organization that repurposes old Sari's. The handstiching is really amazing.
