Chikan Embroidery - Lesson 2
Lesson 2 for my Chikan Embroidery class was fairly easy for me as it involved two stitches I have used quite a bit and there wasn't quite as much area to cover as in lesson 1. It included the Chain stitch (Janjira) and the Stem stitch (Rahet). I think I forgot to mention that the stitch for lesson 1 was the Double Back Stitch (Bakhya/Bakhiya/Bakhia) a/k/a Shadow Applique.

Your stitching is so beautiful. And you have worked really hard. I am a little behind. But the weekend is ahead.
Beautiful!
Connie, I learned to do this years ago, I love doing it. Simple, yet elegant. Yours is looking good. Love the shadow work.
