Vennila! If you're thinking it's an icecream flavour, then ooops. It's my Amma's name which means White Moon in Tamil. Since I'm away from home for the first time for my craft studies I thought of making a warm quilt which reminds me of my mom's warmth to save me from Jaipur's winter chills. So I made this quilt using blue which represents the dark & cold nights and applique with a crescent moon which represents my mom and celestial bodies with sashiko embroidery.
I've also hand dyed strips of fabric using tie dye techniques such as shibori, bandhani & with some intuitive ideas to create values & patterns with found objects and blue dye. Finally added tassels from trims for a bohemian look. Best for studying and picnic dates.
