Chicken scratch work is very nicely done.
Diya's comment: Did she make it by hand, or with a computer? All the border designs match exactly, and must have taken a long time to finish!

wonderful embroidery work. Viji, hats of to your patience. Very nice to see Embroidery padikolam.
Long back I have up loaded an embroidery kolam with color powder done on the backside of a squared tile. It look me nearly one full day to complete it. (Lata, can you put it in the home page for easy comparison?)

This is a nice pattern with good symmetry. The choice of the gridded cloth is wise indeed as it serves as a nice template. Very good attempt.

Actually chicken stratch (or kozhi kirukkal in tamil) is not so neat at all - I am sure you all know what I mean - but Viji has trained her chicken to scratch very neatly and wow what a masterpiece.. Viji this is really excellent - so perfect too
