I did this along with my mother-in-law for Pongal 2009. She is 65 yrs, she has under went a knee replacement surgery, but she would still want to join me when i do a kolam. I am sure, for south indian women, kolams are very close to heart!

a very simple kolam for pongal with the traditional pots

Straignt dots - 19 - 1

This is a very simple pongal paanai kolam which I drew on Pongal this year - I did not have a good choice of colours (Brindha and Preethi I really envy you guys) and had to make do with whatever was there, so though the kolam came out quite well, the colouring was not at all satisfactory.

this rangoli is drawn in front of my home during pongal

WISH YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY PONGAL AND A VERY HAPPY SANKRANTHI IKOLAM MEMBERS

Pongal kolam.
