Thanks to Indus ladies forum for this idea..
I'm proud of my efforts to enlarge and trace this picture and outline, hopefully I should be able to draw a procession below it as well

Pearl and metallic colours on pillow cover



Well, I finally bought a pair of cotton plain pillow covers to try my hand at pearl colour designs.
By trial and error learnt to blow up the images and take prints.(sliced them in reqd sizes on microsoft paint,saved each image and printed out from Picasa, which automatically enlarges them to A4 size)
1. Line diagram, had to struggle alot to trace the design. Was not sure of colour combination, all the colours I tried looked black on the cloth. Finally had to use 3D colour tubes and glitter.
2. I guess, with perseverence, I improvised on the above one.
3.Practice brings in some results, I guess this is better this time.

Thanks to Indus ladies forum for the designs.. and inspiration.
