The lotus pond

The lotus...a flower that grows in mud yet stands out....a symbol of purity and piousness and an inspiration for many designers. And I.... love it too. You can contemporarize it, stylize it without making it lose its essence and beauty. I played around with a the motif and worked on it with gold thread and sequence on a background of orange and red raw silk  and this is how it looks. Imagine it on a white sofa or even a beige one...it will simply light up the room and if it is an occasion to celebrate or a festive season,this would bring in the light and joy. This was picked up immediately and now  housed in UK. Its feels good when products designed and handmade at the workshop finds space in homes in a different part of the world.... :)

You could co-ordinate this with a light and bright, sun gold orange as a runner with sequence just scarcely scattered  and no borders. That would complete the look.
